Billecart – Salmon Brut Rose NV Champagne75cl, 12.5%

Description

Billecart – Salmon Brut Rose NV Champagne75cl, 12.5% is one of the most recognisable rosé Champagnes from the house of Billecart-Salmon, celebrated for its finesse, delicacy, and refined red-fruit character. This non-vintage rosé is built from Chardonnay, Meunier, and Pinot Noir vinified as red wine, and the current official Billecart-Salmon technical sheet presents it under the house style name “Le Rosé.”

The official formulation is based on 45% Chardonnay sourced from top Champagne crus, 35% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne, and 20% Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne and the southern slopes of Épernay. It is vinified at low temperature in stainless steel tanks, aged on lees for 36 months, and bottled with an Extra Brut dosage, all of which help explain its balance of freshness, texture, and precision.

What makes this bottle especially attractive is the way it combines visual elegance with a highly polished palate. Billecart-Salmon’s own notes describe subtle aromas of red berries and citrus zest, followed by a creamy, smooth palate with wild strawberry character and a slightly raspberry-toned finish. That makes it a strong choice for customers who want a rosé Champagne with real finesse rather than overt sweetness or heaviness.

Why Choose Billecart – Salmon Brut Rose NV Champagne

This is a prestige rosé Champagne from one of the most respected family-owned houses in Champagne, offering elegance, fine mousse, red-fruit finesse, and a beautifully judged balance between freshness and texture. It works equally well as a celebratory bottle, a gift, or a premium food-pairing Champagne.
