Billecart-Salmon Champagne Brut Rose' NV 750ml
| Winery: | Billecart-Salmon |
|---|---|
| Description: | Spread across almost 250 acres in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Billecart-Salmon, founded in 1818, remains family owned and operated. This estate supplements its own grapes with those grown by farmers across 700 more acres situated around Epernay, and Billecart-Salmon crafts seven elegant, finessed bottlings, including some of the best-priced vintage Champagne on the market. Billecart-Salmon harvests its grapes early to ensure an elegant, acidic, and structured Champagne, suitable for aging, and it uses a process known as double cold settling, by which it rests the first press in cold tanks before racking it again to let it settle and precipitate again, thus naturally removing unwanted solids, and wild yeasts. This Champagne estate even uses horses and sheep to help tend to its Clos Saint-Hilaire vineyard! Aging takes place in Billecart-Salmon's chalk caves, which extend more than a mile underground and date to the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. Helmed by Mathieu Roland-Billecart and overseen by cellar master Florent Nys, Billecart-Salmon makes Champagne worthy of a celebration, wedding, or anniversary. |
