94 points Bettane & Desseauve: "Chardonnay from the grands crus of the Côte des Blancs, which exhales with precision yellow and green citrus fruits, its white flesh expresses healthy fruits and their chiseled skins. Prominent mouthfeel, remarkably clear aromas, tangy flint, finish of fine confectionery. (2022)"
93 points James Suckling: "A full-bodied sparkling with sliced cooked pears and apples. Dusty chalk and some mineral and stone undertones. Full-bodied with firmness and tightness at the end. Linear and compact on the palate. Tangy finish. Drink or hold. (7/6/22)"
93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Produced from the grapes grown in the Côte des Blancs, this beautiful Champagne is crisp and mineral, with a great texture and acidity. It has elegance and style as well. It is a finely balanced wine that is ready to drink. Alcohol 12%. (Dec 2020)"
92 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "Based on the 2014 vintage, supplemented by some 30% of reserve wines, Billecart's newly released NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru offers up a classic bouquet of freshly baked bread, crisp orchard fruit, citrus oil and wet stones. Medium to full-bodied, chalky and incisive, with an elegantly fleshy core of fruit, racy acids and a pinpoint mousse, it's as bright and precise as ever. Drink: 2020-2035. (Sep 2020)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "[$90 list] Rapierlike acidity defines this lip-smacking version, with rich notes of grilled nut, melon and apricot fruit, grated ginger and lemon curd gaining momentum. It's sleek and racy, with a lively mousse and a long, mineral-tinged finish. Drink now through 2025. (12/15/20)"
92 points/'Coup de Couer,' La Revue du Vin de France: "The Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs is noble and displays a high caliber worthy of this rating. ‘Coup de Coeur’ for the blanc de blancs, for its beautiful crunchiness and its finely buttered touch. The wine displays a beautiful dimension and a subtly woven structure. (2022)"
