The Billecart-Salmon Cuvée Nicolas-François Billecart Millesime 2008 (75cl) is a prestigious champagne, crafted as a tribute to the house's founder. This 2008 vintage champagne represents a culmination of meticulous grape selection and expert winemaking, offering a complex and rewarding drinking experience. Created in 1964 to honor Nicolas François Billecart, this cuvée celebrates the founder's vision and commitment to quality.

Expect a blend of fruity notes like orchard fruits, mirabelle plum, and cherry, intertwined with hints of hawthorn and a touch of floral character reminiscent of acacia blossom and rose petal. As the wine breathes, more complex aromas of lightly toasted nuts, frangipane, and candied mandarin peel emerge. The champagne's full body is complemented by a lively acidity, creating a lingering and delightful taste experience.
Enjoy it alongside appetizers like oysters or smoked salmon. For a main course pairing, consider roasted poultry like Bresse chicken or veal chops with chanterelle mushrooms. The champagne's richness can also complement creamy pasta dishes. Transport your guests to the heart of France with a Parisian-inspired dinner party. This champagne's elegance and pedigree will be the perfect centerpiece. Elevate your holiday gatherings with a focus on delectable appetizers. This champagne's versatility will pair beautifully with a wide range of finger foods.
