Billecart-Salmon Brut NVPale gold. Fresh peach, pear and nectarine on the nose, with a complicating note of white flowers. Fleshy, plush and ripe, with strong peach and ripe pear flavors in a more powerful and less restrained style than last year's release. Firms up on the finish, picking up a mineral note and showing very good balance and length. STEPHEN TANZER

Billecart-Salmon Brut Rose NVWith its ubiquitous pink label, Billecart's NV Brut Rosé is one of the most recognizable bottles in all of Champagne. It is so important for wines like this to be good, as they are symbols for the region. This release is especially fine. Cranberry, pink grapefruit and white flowers caress the palate. Deep, pliant and so expressive, the Brut Rosé is terrific…ANTONIO GALLONIIf the greatness of rosé champagne is measured in the fairy-touch of delicacy and the whisper of finesse, Billecart is the greatest. Dollar-for-champagne-dollar, no other aperitif speaks with such haunting fidelity. TYSON STELZERA succulent, delicious and precise brut rosé, made of chardonnay, pinot meunier and pinot noir. It has notes of wild currants, peach skin and mild spices. It’s medium-bodied and vivid with fine bubbles and plenty of succulence. Sour cherries and redcurrants on the palate. Fresh acidity and a comforting, fruity character to the delicious finish. Drink now. JAMES SUCKLINGPerfectly pure, brilliant salmon-pink colour; the bouquet beautifully harmonious with freshness and character: dried flower petals, echoes of dried red fruits, and just a hint of lightly browned toast. The wine is soft and almost fluffy on the palate, silken smooth, a lovely glass of rosé, its controlled sweetness leaving a dry finish. Great drinkability. HUON HOOKEA pretty strawberries-and-cream nose that leads straight to raspberries galore in the mouth. Blood orange, too, with a suggestion of tamarind chutney. Frankly fruity and frankly delicious. The balance is just right for food – in fact the wine was surprisingly good with a rich, slow-cooked pheasant red-wine casserole, and equally good with roasted tomato-and-courgette frittata the following day. TAMLYN CURRYRefined, fine-tuned nose of apricot and flower intertwined with a lovely yeasty-toasty undertone. Lightweight, silky palate with bright, pure fruitiness and a smooth cushiony mousse. Long, fresh, firm and vibrant finish. Understated elegance. The Billecart NV Rosé is back in form. A real classic. ESSI AVELLAN MWNVChampagneFrance376$185.00 As low as $166.50 -
Billecart-Salmon Sous Bois Brut NVAttractive and complex nose of salted almonds, apricots, figs, raspberries and white chocolate. Tangy green apples, too.

Aged six years on lees. Drink now. JAME SUCKLINGChampagneFrance376$185.00 As low as $166.50 -
Saint-Gall Blanc De Blancs Orpale 2008100% chardonnay from grand cru villages in the Côte des Blancs (Mesnil-sur-Oger, Cramant, Avize, Oger) from the 2008 vintage. 7g/l dosage
Luminous golden colour and fine cords of bubbles. The nose first reveals notes of citrus, candied lemon and yellow fruits. Then it evolves and reveals smoky notes of blond tobacco and roasted nuts. The finish is refreshing and long, ORPALE 2008 was imagined as a jewel of a cuvee. The 2008 Orpale is an exceptional, passionate cuvée that naturally has a special place at the table, served with gourmet aperitifs or with fine dishes during a meal. Domaine Wine Shippers, Importer
