What to expect

- Meunier dominant champagne followed by Pinot Noir

- Iconic & well-respected champagne house

- Add some serious flair to a dinner party with this giant bottle (3L)

There is something to be said about this wine that makes it so approachable. It's easy, well-considered and provides freshness well beyond its peers. If you want to show someone you 'care', get them a bottle. If you really care, get them a Magnum.

"This cuvée is a captivating contradiction, dressing one of Champagne’s higher representations of meunier in one of the most delicate and graceful of attires.

It glides onto the stage and sings with the pristine signature of the house, energised by the red apple and red berry fruits of meunier, with a breathtakingly refined melody of pure lemon zest. Classic Billecart." Tyson Stelzer - The Champagne Guide 2018-2019.

About the house

One of the leading families of Champagne, this medium sized, high quality domain is one to be admired. Billecart-Salmon (Pronounced beel-kahr sahl-moh) have a fresh, clean and elegant style. They champion the use of the meunier grape which is often added to other cuvees without fanfare in other houses. The absolutely pristine wine making facilities located in Mareuil-Sur-Aÿ are overseen by multiple generations of the family as well as chef winemaker Francois Domi. The house purposely ferments at a lower temperature elongating the ferment to weeks and not days as can be standard in champagne, which helps capture the pristine nature of the fruit. Every step of the wine making process at the house is artful, right down to the precision of the dosage which is unique for every disgorgement conducted in batches.
