The reputation — the story that sells at the table

Billecart-Salmon is the sommelier's Champagne house — consistently voted the finest family-owned maison by professionals. The rosé is considered the benchmark of all Champagne rosé. A must-have on any serious fine dining Champagne list.

Practice
Billecart-Salmon is the most respected family-owned Champagne house among sommeliers and fine dining professionals — the estate's wines represent the highest quality-to-value ratio among prestige Champagne. The Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay) is one of the finest expressions of the style; the Nicolas François Billecart prestige cuvée achieves extraordinary depth. The rosé is considered the finest in all of Champagne: pure salmon, delicate, mineral, and capable of aging 15-20 years. Owned by the same family since 1818 — six generations of uncompromising quality.
