On Thursday, March 7th, indulge in an evening of sophistication at Hampton Wine Co. as we warmly welcome the renowned House of Billecart-Salmon.
Established in 1818 as the result of the marriage of Nicolas François Billecart and Elisabeth Salmon, this famed Champagne house is located in the town of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, east of Epernay.
A small, family-owned house that always produces high-quality Champagne of great finesse, Billecart-Salmon is particularly renowned for the delicate style of its rosé, which accounts for one in every five bottles it sells. The essence of the Billecart-Salmon style has always been its meticulous production. TOM STEVENSON
The Billecart-Salmon house style is defined by class, elegance, and a sublime freshness to the wines. Long fermentations at cold temperatures with no malolactic fermentation are the rule at this small, family-owned property in Mareuil-sur-Ay.
