The Cuvée Essence by Champagne Billiot represents the pinnacle of the Billiot family's winemaking expertise, renowned for its dedication to enhancing the best grapes of the region. This Champagne is produced in limited quantities, reflecting particular attention in the selection of grapes, all sourced from the finest plots of the estate.

This Cuvée is primarily composed of Pinot Noir, which provides body and structure, with a small percentage of Chardonnay to add elegance and freshness. The vinification involves traditional fermentation in oak barrels, followed by a long period of maturation on the lees, contributing to an extraordinary aromatic complexity.

On the nose, the Cuvée Essence opens with intense notes of white pulp fruits, honey, and toasting, enriched by subtle hints of hazelnut and brioche. On the palate, the texture is creamy and the lively acidity balances the richness of the wine, leading to a long and persistent finish that leaves a memorable impression of minerality and finesse.

Ideal for special occasions, this Champagne pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as oysters, salmon tartare, or simply as an aperitif to celebrate unmatched moments. Serving as a sublime expression of the art of Champagne, the Cuvée Essence by Billiot is a symbol of luxury and sophistication that will satisfy the most demanding connoisseurs.
