{"title":"Billecart-Salmon","description":"\u003cp\u003eBillecart-Salmon is one of the few great Champagne houses still owned by the family that founded it. Since 1818 it has made champagne in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ with a style built on finesse rather than power: pale, precise, fresh and quietly long. The Brut Rosé made the name, but the range runs from Le Réserve to Cuvée Nicolas François and the single-vineyard Clos Saint-Hilaire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBillecart-Salmon champagne: a family house in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe house began with a marriage. In 1818 Nicolas François Billecart married Elisabeth Salmon, and together they set up a champagne house in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, a Marne Valley village just east of Aÿ and a short drive from Épernay. Elisabeth's brother Louis Salmon, a keen student of winemaking, took charge of the cellar. All three names live on in the prestige cuvées, so the bottles read like a family tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe family still runs the house: Mathieu Roland-Billecart took over at its head in 2019.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Billecart-Salmon champagne tastes so pure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe answer lies in the cellar. In the 1950s the house adopted cold settling of the juice and a long, slow fermentation at low temperature, an unusual approach in Champagne at the time. Settling the must in the cold and letting the yeasts work gently keeps the fruit bright and the aromas delicate. That is why a glass of Billecart reads as crisp pear, citrus and white flowers rather than heavy brioche.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOak is kept for \u003cstrong\u003eBrut Sous Bois\u003c\/strong\u003e, fermented entirely in barrel for a broader, nuttier champagne that suits a main course.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrom Le Réserve to Brut Rosé: the non-vintage range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLe Réserve\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eBrut Réserve\u003c\/strong\u003e, here also in magnum, are the classic entry point, a blend of the three Champagne grapes with fresh orchard fruit. The \u003cstrong\u003eBrut Rosé\u003c\/strong\u003e is the wine most people know the house by. It is a Chardonnay-led blend of all three grapes with a small share of still red Pinot Noir from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, very pale in colour, scented with wild strawberry and citrus peel.
