"I tasted 18 current non vintage cuvées of the most famous champagne houses blind – a rare treat – and Billecart-Salmon Brut Réserve was the most impressive for me! "
Rated Outstanding & 95/100 Cameron Douglas MS, December 2021 (NV)
"This is a complete wine with a wonderful aroma package including soft fragrances of yellow stone fruits, citrus, strawberry and delicate spice. The autolysis lees core is focused, biscuit-like, fresh and vibrant. An expressive mousse with a fine bubble, persistent almost crunchy mouthfeel and carrying the flavours suggest by the bouquet. Elegant, complex, youthful, vibrant and delicious. A Champagne for any occasion, dry, lengthy, complex and delicious. Best drinking from day of purchase and through 2028+."
