FRANCE – CHAMPAGNE<br />

In 1818, Nicolas François Billecart <strong>and</strong> his spouse Elisabeth Salmon founded their Champagne House in<br />

Mareuil-sur-Ay, where the Billecart family had been established since the 17 th century .At this time, they reclaimed<br />

the coat <strong>of</strong> arms <strong>of</strong> their ancestor, Pierre Billecart, counselor, to the parliament <strong>of</strong> the King <strong>of</strong> France.<br />

FBC03 Billecart-Salmon Cuvee Nicolas Francois Billecart 1998 RP 94<br />

This excellent cuvee was created in 1964 as a tribute to the house‟s founder. It results from the blending <strong>of</strong> Gr<strong>and</strong><br />

Crus from the classified Cotes de Blancs vineyards (Chardonnay) <strong>and</strong> the Montagne de Reims (Pinot Noir).Its<br />

vinification, partially in traditional casks, underpins de generous character <strong>of</strong> this fine, elegant <strong>and</strong> rich wine.<br />

FBC04 Billecart-Salmon Gr<strong>and</strong>e Cuvée 1996 RP 95<br />

Since 1982, the Billecart Salmon Gr<strong>and</strong>e Cuvee has revealed all its character to a following <strong>of</strong> informed wine lovers.<br />

This great wine, produced from the finest sites <strong>of</strong> selected Gr<strong>and</strong> Crus, comes into its own after spending 10 years in<br />

our traditional cellars. This cuvee deserves its title <strong>of</strong> „Gr<strong>and</strong> Cru‟ thanks to the meticulous blend <strong>of</strong> grapes exclusively<br />

from the Pinot Noir <strong>and</strong> Chardonnay Gr<strong>and</strong> Crus<br />

FBC05 Billecart-Salmon Clos Saint Hilaire 1998 RP 95<br />

The magic <strong>of</strong> the soil added to human skills has produced an exceptionally pure wine sourced exclusively from Pinot Noir.<br />

To enable this great wine to mature in typical single cru style, the House chooses to add very little dosage.<br />
