Description

The Making of the Le Rosé Billecart-Salmon Half-Bottle

This cuvée is based on a blend of 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, and 20% Meunier, sourced notably from the Montagne de Reims and the Coteaux Sud d’Épernay. A fraction of the Pinot Noirs is vinified as red wine, bringing subtle nuances and a harmonious structure. Vinification, carried out in stainless steel vats, preserves the freshness and aromatic expression of the grapes. During a 36-month maturation on the lees in the historic cellars of Billecart-Salmon, the aromas develop, gaining depth and complexity. The Extra Brut dosage enhances the purity and balance of this cuvée.
