Billecart Salmon - Champagner Brut Rose

FALSTAFF: "Mittleres Lachsrosa, Silberreflexe, zartes, gut anhaltendes Mousseux. Feine, frische Kirschenfrucht, ein Hauch von Himbeeren, Nuancen von Limettenzesten, floraler Touch. Saftig, weißer Pfirsichtouch, mineralisch und frisch strukturiert, zitronig-salziger Nachhall, Noten von Preiselbeeren im Rückgeschmack."

JAMES SUCKLING: "Cinnamon and dried nutmeg add to the experience of bread dough and rose petals. Flavorful on the medium-bodied palate and finely poised with bright acidity. Medium-long on the finish. Drink now."

WINE SPECTATOR: "A lovely rosé in an almost vinous style, with mouthwatering acidity and a fine, lacy mousse carrying appealing flavors of ripe raspberry, white cherry fruit, star anise, mandarin orange peel and honeysuckle. Lightly chalky on the lasting finish. Enjoy with food. Drink now through 2020."

LISA PERROTTI-BROWN: "Based on the 2019 vintage with 43% of reserve wines from the previous 5 years, the Billecart-Salmon Brut Rosé NV is 43% Chardonnay, 33% of old vine Pinot Noir of which 7% is still for the blend, and 24% Pinot Meunier. Aromatically fresh and vibrant with bright, red berry, citrus peel and verbena blossom notes leading into a somewhat savory and lean, light to medium-bodied palate with lively acid coiling around oodles of citrus freshness and juicy raspberry notes before concluding with hints of marmalade and honey on the finish. Beautiful and balanced, it leaves you thirsty for another glass."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Based on the 2018 vintage, Billecart's new NV Brut Rosé incorporates 40% reserve wines and some 6% still red wine. Bursting with scents of sweet red berries, peonies, stone fruits, white cherries, freshly baked bread and spices, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and charming, with a seamless and enveloping core of fruit and a lively, fine-boned profile."

DECANTER: "This is based on the 2015 vintage, with 40% of reserve wines and 8% still red wine. The blend is 40% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier. With an intense bouquet of raspberry, flowers and lemon, this cuvée possesses a straight, pure and clean palate with vinosity and tension. Dosage: 9g/l. Drinking Window 2019 - 2022."
