Billecart-Salmon Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs NV	93 Wine Enthusiast Taut and mineral, this fine Blanc de Blancs Champagne brings out the crispness of Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs. Its croissant aroma suggests some bottle age, confirmed in the ripeness of the white fruits and acidity. Drink now. 93 Wine Advocate The NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru is showing beautifully today, with aromas of confit citrus, pear, herbs, orchard fruits, pastry and brioche. Medium to full-bodied, it is round and supple with the delicate, bright tension that is the signature of Billecart-Salmon. Perfectly balanced and offering a vinous, toasty and elegantly long finish, it’s based on the 2017 vintage with 23% from 2016. Vinified and matured in stainless steel, it spent five years on the lees in bottle before being disgorged with a dosage of 1.7 grams per liter. 93 James Suckling Very clean and creamy blanc de blancs. Lovely freshness and balance, with fine, creamy bubbles and a rounded yet dry finish. 91 Wine Spectator A lively blanc de blancs. 90 Vinous Time in the glass brings out the wine’s perfumed aromatics and an attractive exotic quality that is so alluring.
