Billecart-Salmon Demi-Sec Non-Vintage
Family run since the 19th century, the Billecart Champagne house delivers large number of bottles which are always well made and of the highest quality. The champagnes of Maison Billecart-Salmon are above all created thanks to the knowledge of the men who rigorously cultivate an estate of 100 hectares, obtaining grapes from an area totalling 300 hectares across 40 crus of the Champagne region. This Demi-Sec champagne is full-flavoured and is a reference for its perfect balance between sugar, alcohol and acidity. The blend of Demi-Sec is identical of the Brut Reserve however, the dosage is greater. It maintains the same finesse and elegance as this cuvée but with a greater dosage. 30% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne, 30% Chardonnay sourced from the best Crus in the Champagne region, and 40% Pinot Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne and the southern slopes of Epernay. It has a beautiful, pale gold colour, emitting a constant procession of fine, regular and persistent bubbles in the glass. This Demi-Sec champagne is full-flavoured and is a reference for its perfect balance between sugar, alcohol and acidity. On the nose it is lively with a hint of delicate white flowers which evolve towards aromas of buttered brioche. Ideal when served with patisseries or chocolate cake; it also turns a brioche afternoon snack into a unique experience.
