Champagne Blend

Producer Notes

Billecart-Salmon was established in 1818 by Nicolas-Francois Billecart and Elisabeth Salmon in the town of Mareuil-sur-Ay. It is one of the few Champagne houses still owned by the original family. The house is renowned for its non-vintage rose, but also makes vintage champagnes and a Brut Reserve (a blend of three vintages). Billecart-Salmon farms 30 hectares of its own fruit and purchases grapes... More »

Issue 153

Light orange. Tangerine, pear and flowers on the nose, which is complicated by a note of fennel. Broad and sappy but dry, with lively orange and strawberry flavors and a subtle note of spice cake. Weightier on the finish, which features an exotic note of spicy herbs. This Champagne's delicate touch will make it work well with simple seafood dishes or even sashimi.

Lovely stately strawberry fruit, baked apples, brioche and spice. Invigorating acidity, beautifully soft fizz, very gentle and elegant persistence. (RH)

The NV Brut Rose is a pretty, gracious wine. Freshly cut roses, red berries and spices take shape nicely in the glass as the wine shows off its understated, timeless personality. Billecart-Salmon's NV Brut Rose is a reliably tasty wine

As opposed to many other wine writers, I do not believe that this wine should be drunk in its infancy! After five or six years more years in the bottle, the salmon-pink color gains an orange tone. The elegant, fruity nose gets deeper and nuttier, the flavor more serious and prolonged. A half bottle-with a cork as straight as a rod-at the Tour d'Argent restaurant in Paris in 1993 was outstanding. Not the same quality after 2005.

Drink Dates 2006-2009

A coiled spring of a Champagne, with its berry and bread dough notes locked up in the structure. This needs time or food to mellow and reveal its charms. Good length, with a candied cherry aftertaste.

From 375ml (split) bottle. I must agree with Richard Juhlin's review: this wine should never be consumed young. It's extremely austere and one-dimensional, and reminds me of the quinine water my Dad would use to make cocktails. I got none of the cherry blossom or watermelon essences noted by other tasters and I've experienced in Champagne rose's at one-third the price. Disappointing.

Better than past bottles. It came form an old release since its label is an old one. Well, for non vintage was very good with some live, very nice mature flavors, mainly pears, little earthy.

By far one of my favorite champagnes to date! Pale salmon in color with the tiniest of bubbles, nice floral and strawberry notes and a slight yeasty nose.

I'm generally not one for bubbles but this elegant Rose sparkler definitely merits attention. Captivating aromas and beautiful to look at in the glass. Bursts with citrus and berry flavors, it has great acidity and a nice clean finish.

Bright fruits on the nose including freshly picked cherries, and rhubarb, with a hint of grapefruit. Well balance and very crisp, the freshness and depth make this a thoroughly enjoyable wine. The finish and acid backbone are great. As good as it gets in a non-vintage.

This is my favourite Champagne Rose. Lovely white peach/pale salmon color. Hints of strawberry sorbret. Beautiful acidity, and great mousse.

Everyone Could Use a Little Sparkle...
I love the holidays. The crisp winter air, the music, the family, the food, and the best part - the bubbly. Not that you have to wait for a special occasion to break out the Champagne (I certainly don't!) - but the...
