Note di degustazione
The 2000 Brut Cuvée Nicolas François Billecart impresses for its sheer purity and focus. Nothing is out of place in this beautifully delineated, precise wine. Cool, minty notes add lift, yet the 2000 is rather reticent at this stage and appears to need further bottle age. Still, its textural finesse is impossible to miss. This is Lot # L15215505599A. Disgorged February 2011.

(60% pinot noir and 40% chardonnay; disgorged May 16, 2010) Bright gold. Intensely perfumed scents of dried pear, nectarine, peach skin and musky flowers, with a bright mineral overtone. Deep in orchard fruit and citrus flavors but there's a weightless quality to this Champagne that's really intriguing. Very pure and precise on the finish, with the peach and floral qualities echoing. This would be superb with simple fish preparations.
Greenish. Very rich and dense with lots of acidity. Very, very fresh. Creamy but not sweet. Very complete and long. (JR)
