Billecart Salmon - Champagner Brut Reserve

Decanter: "A fine straw-gold colour with great finesse of bubble flow and mousse. Joyful aromas of apple blossom and ripe pear. A full, defined palate demonstrates richness that will help to give this a long life in the cellar."

Falstaff: "Mittleres Gelbgrün, Silberreflexe, feines anhaltendes Mousseux. Zart nussig unterlegte feine weiße Tropenfruchtanklänge, ein Hauch von Brioche, Nuancen von Blütenhonig. Stoffig, angenehme Pfirsichfrucht, frische Säurestruktur, angenehme Zitrusnuancen, rote Apfelfrucht im Nachhall."

James Suckling: "Plenty of ripe strawberries and wild raspberries on the nose here. Really attractive and vibrant in the mouth with fresh wild strawberries. It also shows a fleshy, fresh-fruit texture. Drink now."

Wine Spectator: "A harmonious Champagne that's satiny in texture, framing flavors of Asian pear, star fruit, pastry and honey with mouthwatering acidity. Offers a fine and creamy finish. Drink now through 2021."

The Wine Advocate: "Based on the 2018 vintage, Billecart's newly released NV Brut Réserve incorporates fully 53% reserve wines, up from just over a third in the past, and incorporates the usual 40% Pinot Meunier in the blend. Offering up attractive aromas of citrus zest, green apple and freshly baked bread, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and charming, with a demonstrative core of fruit and a pretty pinpoint mousse, concluding with a saline finish."
