How to serve it
Tasting notes
Pale salmon pink with a fine, lively bead. The nose is delicate: wild strawberry, redcurrant and citrus peel over a floral lift. The palate is creamy and precise, the red fruit carried on very fine bubbles, closing fresh and long on raspberry.
About this wine
Billecart-Salmon was founded in 1818 at Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and is still run by the founding families. Its Brut Rosé, created in 1970 by Jean Roland-Billecart, became the wine the house is known for.
The blend draws Chardonnay from the finest crus of Champagne, Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and Pinot Meunier from the Marne valley. A small part of the Pinot Noir is vinified as a red wine and added to give the pale colour. Fermentation is slow and cold in stainless steel, the method that defines the house style.
