N.V. Henri Billiot Brut Rose, Grand Cru, Ambonnay, Champagne, France (750ml)   


Laetitia Billiot is the fourth generartion to estate bottle Champagnes at this domaine in the Grand Cru Village of Ambonnay, a village known for its Pinot Noir. Her great grandfather Louis Billiot bottled small amounts of wine, but it was his son and Laetitia’s grandfather Henri that created the estate that exists today.

Laetitia’s father Serge took over in 1954 quickly establishing himself as a top producer, producing a range of wines from his Grand Cru holdings in Ambonnay. Today, Laetitia continues the tradition, working 5 hectares in Ambonnay. Of the 18 parcels that Billiot works, all but one of them are mid slope, in the most desirable sections of this famous village. “The wines of Ambonnay are very vinous, with a lot of strength,” says Laetitia Billiot,“but they are also very fine, with delicacy and finesse. They stay fresh for a long time.” In our experience Billiot Champagnes have a broader shoulders than many of their brethren, and combine power and finess in a way that is consistently compelling.
