In 1818, Nicolas François Billecart and his wife Elisabeth Salmon founded the house of Billecart-Salmon in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, which now stands as the oldest continuously family-owned and operated house in Champagne. The estate is currently managed by the family’s seventh generation, brothers François and Antoine Roland-Billecart, while the cellars lie in the hands of Florent Nys.
Winemaker / Chef du Cave: Florent Nys
Farming: Sustainable
Varieties: Composed of the three Champenois grape varieties in equal proportions:
- 33% Premier and Grand Cru Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs
- 33% Premier and Grand Cru Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims, Aÿ and Mareuil-Sur-Aÿ
- 33% Pinot Meunier from the right bank of the Vallée de la Marne
