Billecart Salmon Cuvee Nicolas-Francois Billecart 1979

HED93305 75cl 12%
Situated in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Billecart-Salmon has a rich history dating back to 1818 when Nicolas François Billecart and Elisabeth Salmon married. Their range encompasses a variety of expressions, from the classic Brut Reserve and Rosé to the highly esteemed Cuvée Nicolas François Billecart, first introduced in 1964. The 1979 Champagne vintage experienced overall excellence. Although a cold winter and spring brought frosts, flowering was satisfactory, and the subsequent summer yielded abundant sunshine and heat, resulting in a bountiful harvest.
