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.

He doesn't harvest less than 10.5 degrees of potential alcohol, very high for champagne – so there is never any need for chaptalisation or addition of sugar. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe winemaking is natural and non-interventionist with only native yeasts used for the primary ferment and bottling takes place with no filtration or fining. He does use malolactic fermentation and then the wine remains on lees for around five months, with one third of the production being aged in old oak barrels before the secondary ferment in bottle. These truly are incredibly intense and vivid expressions of champagne.

Doquet bottled it for the first time in the 2000 vintage, holding it on its lees for about seven years, and that lees-aging gives it a wonderful texture and depth, seemingly amplifying the minerality even more—one wonders, for example, what Larmandier-Bernier's Terre de Vertus would be like if it had the equivalent amount of time on the lees.\"\u003c\/em\u003e Peter Liem \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the House\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePascal has been making wines for his parents brand since 1993 and over the years he decided to establish his own brand in 2004 - Pascal Doquet. Pascal is dedicated to his vineyards - his viticultural methods are 100% organic and he uses late ripening like Egly Ouriet, Benoît Lahaye and Rémi Leroy to achieve full maturity in his fruit. He doesn't harvest less than 10.5 degrees of potential alcohol, very high for champagne – so there is never any need for chaptalisation or addition of sugar. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe winemaking is natural and non-interventionist with only native yeasts used for the primary ferment and bottling takes place with no filtration or fining. He does use malolactic fermentation and then the wine remains on lees for around five months, with one third of the production being aged in old oak barrels before the secondary ferment in bottle. These truly are incredibly intense and vivid expressions of champagne. He has a wide range of wines and many are site specific, with each cuvée expressing its own distinctive character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Suggestion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e...\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
