Elegance, Bottled
Founded in 1818, Billecart-Salmon (pronounced beel-kahr sahl-moh) is one of the most prestigious family-owned houses in Champagne. Known for their fresh, clean, and elegant style, Billecart-Salmon champions the often-understated Meunier grape, giving it the spotlight in their blends where others may not. Overseen by generations of the family alongside Chief Winemaker François Domi, the house’s winemaking philosophy is meticulous and artful. They purposely ferment at lower temperatures, extending fermentation from days to weeks to preserve the pristine character of the fruit. Every element—from fermentation to disgorgement—is carefully calibrated to create champagnes of exceptional balance and purity. If you're new to fine wine, Billecart-Salmon will open your eyes to what truly superior Champagne can be.
