    Description Billecart Salmon Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Louis

    Estate

    Champagne Billecart Salmon is a renowned family-owned house, celebrated for producing elegant and precise champagnes that blend tradition and modernity.

    Vineyard

    The vineyard is primarily located in the Côte des Blancs, a region known for its chalky and clay-limestone soils ideal for Chardonnay. This unique terroir imparts finesse and freshness to the wines.

    Wine

    The Champagne Billecart Salmon 2009 is a blanc de blancs made exclusively from Chardonnay, offering a pure and refined expression of the grape variety. Its precision and minerality make it a benchmark cuvée for discerning enthusiasts.

    Vintage

    The 2009 vintage is recognized for its exceptional quality, combining freshness and power. With scores of 95/100 from Robert Parker and 94/100 from La Revue du Vin de France, it ranks among the great recent vintages.

    Vinification & Aging

    Winemaking follows the traditional Champagne method, with extended aging on lees to develop fine bubbles and enhanced aromatic complexity.

    Grape Variety

    100% Chardonnay

    Characteristics & Tasting

    Tasting
