Billecart-Salmon Champagne
It’s time to celebrate. Why? Why not? Spring has seemingly come and gone leaving us, all of us, basking in the enhanced radiation of these modern days. Of course we will all drink rose and white wine; as we should. But let’s take life one step further and celebrate now with a bottle of bubbly, a flute of fine sparkling finesse, a mysterious melody of the traditional method. Of course we have a favorite, Maison Billecart-Salmon, and having acquired a bastion of their bottles we offer to you, the people, a summer selection of irrational decadence.
Founded in 1818 and based in the village of Mareuil-Sur-Ay, Billecart-Salmon has been producing fine Champagne for almost 200 years. Famous for their vintage bottlings, especially the Blanc de Blancs and everything rose; this house has consistently remained at the top of every true Champagne lover’s list. Although well-regarded and ubiquitously known, Billecart-Salmon is still hard to find and, some would say, a privilege to know. So here is what we have to offer; we wish we had more:
- Brut Reserve NV 750ml $47
- Blanc de Blancs NV 750ml $70
- Grand Cuvee 1996 750ml $220
Rose
- Brut Rose NV 375ml $40
- Brut Rose NV 750ml $80
- Cuvee Elisabeth Salmon Brut Rose 1998 750ml $165
- Cuvee Elisabeth Salmon Brut Rose 2000 750ml $165
