Mar 06, 2024

In this episode of the Vint Podcast, Billy Galanko and Brady Weller interview Mathieu Roland-Billecart, the 7th generation leader of the prestigious Champagne house Billecart-Salmon, based in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, France. Established in 1818 through the marriage of Nicolas François Billecart and Elisabeth Salmon, the house has been family-owned and operated for nearly two centuries, making it one of the oldest continuously family-owned champagne producers in the world. Billecart-Salmon is especially known for its Brut Rosé, which has gained international acclaim for its consistency and quality.

Mathieu represents the latest in a long line of family members dedicated to upholding the house's tradition of excellence, while also embracing modern techniques and sustainability practices to ensure the future success and integrity of the brand. Under his leadership, the house continues to focus on producing high-quality champagnes that reflect the terroir of the Champagne region and the unique heritage of the Billecart-Salmon name.
