Billecart Salmon
Join us for an immersive Champagne experience starting at Billecart-Salmon, a house founded in 1818, where craftsmanship and tradition are at the heart of every bottle.
Billecart-Salmon is celebrated for its refined and balanced cuvees, consistently receiving high praise from critics. The Brut Rose (97 points Wine Enthusiast) is admired for its delicate notes of red fruits, citrus, and crisp acidity, making it a favorite for rose lovers worldwide. The Cuvee Nicolas Francois, named after the founder, offers a powerful yet elegant profile with a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. It scored 98 points in Decanter and is known for its richness and complexity. The Clos Saint-Hilaire, a single-vineyard Pinot Noir cuvee, consistently earns 96+ points and is cherished for its depth, structure, and long aging potential.
Another standout is the Elisabeth Salmon Rose, a vintage cuvee praised for its fine balance of red fruit, floral notes, and a silky texture, often scoring 95-97 points from Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator. Each of these cuvees reflects Billecart-Salmon’s philosophy of elegance, precision, and dedication to creating age-worthy Champagnes that maintain freshness and complexity over time.
Billecart’s non-vintage wines are aged for three-and-a-half to four years and its vintage champagnes for a minimum of eight to ten years.
In addition to L'Assiette Champenoise and Les Crayeres, Billecart-Salmon Champagnes are also served at several other fine dining establishments in the Champagne region. Le Parc at Chateau Les Crayeres is another Michelin-starred destination that offers exquisite pairings with Billecart-Salmon cuvees. Le Millenaire in Reims is another acclaimed restaurant where you can enjoy these prestigious Champagnes alongside inventive modern cuisine. Racine, a two-Michelin-star restaurant, also serves Billecart-Salmon, offering a fusion of French and Japanese flavors.
