Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Billecart’s newly released NV Brut Nature exhibits aromas of fresh bread, crisp orchard fruit, almond paste and ripe citrus fruit. Medium-bodied, pillowy and precise, it’s crisp and bone-dry, without being in the least austere.

• Wine Spectator: Firm and minerally, this tightly meshed Champagne carries delicate notes of orchard blossom, Asian pear, toast point and oyster shell on the finely detailed mousse.
