Based across two sites in Fontette and Essoyes, which is coincidentally also the home of the famous impressionist Auguste Renoir. They produce an excellent range of champagne at their state-of-the-art facility, from their award-winning Brut right through to their Prestige Cuvée – Cuvée Charles, in honour of their founder Charles Collin who was the man behind the grower vision back in the early 50’s.Over 90% of the vineyards are planted with Pinot noir, the remainder being planted with chardonnay. This is reflected in the range with the wines showing purity, expression and finesse. They are a young and dynamic team led by the talented winemaker Guillaume Cartier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSavoury styled rosé, works great with soft white cheese - Chaource (a Cheese from Champagne) is excellent with this.

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 cuvées 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.

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 cuvées 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the champagne \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo celebrate the arrival of this highly-anticipated champagne, Emperor will be hosting two events, in partnership with Champagne Bi\u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003ellecart\u003c\/span\u003e-Salmon. The Melbourne event is completely sold out but we do have limited tickets available for the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/emperorchampagne.us17.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=009604ee435be88e78349cd37\u0026amp;id=bbfce637a2\u0026amp;e=8f0b158be9\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/emperorchampagne.us17.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u%3D009604ee435be88e78349cd37%26id%3Dbbfce637a2%26e%3D8f0b158be9\u0026amp;source=gmail\u0026amp;ust=1618619764138000\u0026amp;usg=AFQjCNFBdfPiFkNwFaFo21JxCXHz-OAjNw\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSydney event\u003c\/a\u003e on 22 May.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAn aromatic charm of a rare mineral dimension to accompany beautiful Bresse poultry with crayfish or some royal Breton scampi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReviews\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe electrifying energy of 2008 charges Elisabeth Salmon with a dynamism and an endurance like never before. To capture such precision and such concentration of pure red cherry and raspberry fruit and yet at every instant to remain steadfast to the elegance and refinement that is Billecart is the profound juxtaposition that elevates 2008 to dizzying heights. Testimony to the depth of south-facing Mareuil pinot noir even in a season as cool as 2008, just 9% red wine is all that it takes to infuse a pretty, medium salmon hue that has taken on a copper tint in time. It confidently takes 13 years in its stride, revealed only in the most subtle nuances of vanilla and marzipan.
