Billecart Salmon Cuvee Nicolas-Francois Billecart 2007

Founded in 1818 with the marriage of Nicolas François Billecart to Elisabeth Salmon, Billecart-Salmon is one of the few Champagne houses to remain family-owned. Cuvée Nicolas François was created in 1964 as a tribute to the House’s founder. Produced from the blending of Grands Crus from the classified Côte des Blancs vineyards (Chardonnay) and the Montagne de Reims (Pinot Noir). On the nose, the 2007 vintage displays notes of peaches in syrup, fine apple tart and mountain butter together with fresh fig and wild berry character. Complex and refreshing on the palate with orchard and stone fruits mingling with floral character.
