About this bottle

Billecart-Salmon's prestigious cuvée was created in 1964 as a tribute to the house's founder, Nicolas François. The grapes are sourced from vineyards in villages classified as Grands Crus and Premiers Crus. Vinification takes place partly in oak barrels, and the wine is aged for at least 10 years in the cellar.

About Billecart Salmon

Billecart Salmon is a champagne house still largely owned by the Billecart family. Mathieu Roland Billecart has been at the helm since 2019. A large portion of its vineyards are farmed organically and biodynamically. The house also purchases grapes, making it an official Négociant Manipulant.

Billecart Salmon's style is precise and refined, with some highly renowned vintages. In the cellar, they employ advanced vinification techniques, including careful barrel use and long aging. This results in champagnes with depth, balance, and impressive consistency.
