and be blown away by the 24 large, majestic oak casks.
More than 400 small and 24 large oak casks respectively occupy the two chais at the House.
Each oak cask has been meticulously chosen and shaped in order to reveal all the richness and aromatic complexity of the wines. Remaining faithful to its style and expertise, the House vinifies at a low temperature to keep all the characteristic freshness and elegance of its champagnes. With a view to a consistent traceability, each parcel is individually vinified. This knowledge and ancestral method of vinification is combined with vinification in stainless steel tanks to exalt all the elegance of the Billecart style.
