Billecart-Salmon - Champagne 'Brut Réserve' NV

Over the years, Billecart-Salmon has developed a catalog of reserve wines where the new harvest enriches that of previous years. The combination of maturity and freshness builds layers of complexity and depth to the reserve wines of the House.

Faithful to its style and savoir-faire, the House vinifies its wines at low temperature. This method of vinification, of which the House was one of the pioneers, brings forth freshness and elegance and is widely regarded as the signature of our champagnes.

The House vinifies in stainless steel tanks and in 400 oak casks of over 15 years old on average, as well as 26 large oak barrels. On one hand, vinification in steel tanks maintains freshness and purity of the fruit, staying true to the terroir's identity. On the other hand, the use of wood in the vinification process allows the champagne to gain further complexity and depth, enhancing the expression of the terroir. 

Our chief winemaker Florent Nys, with the support of our tasting committee, conveys through meticulous blending the Billecart-Salmon style: finesse, elegance and balance. The tasting committee gathers 3 generations of the family and the wine professionals of the House. Collectively, they make decisions regarding wine selection, blends and dosage. For the latter, the Committee handpicks the wines that will be used to create the dosage liqueurs, the final touch after disgorgement.

Balance and harmony combine together in this light and subtle champagne. Its blend is made up of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier sourced from the very best sites of the Champagne region. It is the ideal partner to delight your guests on every occasion, both as an aperitif and throughout the entirety of a meal.
