Gault&Millau's review
To discover the origins of Billecart-Salmon champagnes, we have to go back to 1818, when husband and wife Nicolas François Billecart and Élisabeth Salmon founded their company. Alongside them, Louis Salmon, Élisabeth's brother and a passionate oenologist, has been involved in winemaking since the estate was founded. Since then, seven generations have succeeded one another in the village of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, near Épernay, with Mathieu Roland-Billecart taking over the reins in 2019. Special mention for the blanc de noirs from the tiny Clos Saint-Hilaire (94 a), planted exclusively with pinot noir vines since 1964. These are now pampered by biodynamic viticulture and are once again open to the public after renovation work.
