2016 Billecart-Salmon, Champagne Extra-Brut Millésimé

Champagne Billecart-Salmon oozes elegance and class. This 200-year-old estate occupies a very special middle ground: much smaller than the big houses like Veuve and Moet, yet large enough to command a global following among “in-the-know” jet-setters who want a more boutique luxury experience. Billecart’s focus on every detail of the farming and winemaking lends an air of authenticity to the stylish glamor of their label. The bottles are beautiful, and the wine is profound. After a tragic few years when a global shortage made their vintage wines almost impossible to find, we’re now able to offer a little bit of this limited beauty to you all. This is 100% Grand Cru fruit, aged on the lees for over five years, from an excellent vintage and an iconic estate for a hair over $100. The holidays are just around the corner so act fast to secure the perfect year end Champagne! Billecart-Salmon was born in 1818, when Nicolas François Billecart married Elisabeth Salmon.
