"The 2018 Brut Millésime (70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay) is a gorgeous Champagne—one of the best I have tasted from Billiot in some time. Sourced from Grand Cru sites in Ambonnay, Pinot's natural intensity comes through in this ample, wonderfully inviting Champagne. Kirsch, plum, spice, dried flowers and brioche race across the palate. More than anything else, though, I admire the resonance and depth here, especially for the year. Dosage is 6 grams per liter. Disgorged: June 19, 2023."

"A lip-smacking Champagne, with a creamy mousse, this has a nutty overtone that enriches flavors of black cherry, blood orange granita, lemon thyme and oyster shell. Disgorged January 2022. Drink now through 2028. 52 cases imported."
