Lateitia, one of only a few Champagne vignerons runs this small estate started by her great-grandfather. All of the fruit comes from the Grand Cru site of Ambonnay, known for powerful, vinuos Pinot Noir. Most of the wines are fermented in stainless steel and malolactic fermentation is blocked to retain the racy acidity needed for a balanced structure.

"Billiot's NV Brut Rosé Grand Cru is powerful and tightly wound, with a great interplay of tension and Ambonnay power. Cranberry, chalk, white pepper and mint are some of the signatures, but it is the wine's persistence and overall palate presence that make it the most distinctive of these three wines. Hints of orange peel and dried leaves add further shades of nuance. There is a lot to like. Disgorged: October 2016. Dosage is 9 grams per liter." -Vinous

"The NV Brut Rose Grand Cru is a deeply colored, powerful wine that showcases the richness of Ambonnay at its finest. The Rose needs some time in the glass to find its inner balance, but when it does the fruit gains delineation and intensity through to the dramatic, sweeping finish. The NV Brut Rose Grand Cru is predominantly Pinot Noir (including 6% still Pinot) with a dash of Chardonnay from the estate’s oldest vineyards. This is Lot L 02, disgorged June, 2010." -Robert Parker

"An undercurrent of minerality supports ripe black cherry and black raspberry flavors, with hints of pastry, cream and candied grapefruit peel. Finely meshed and focused by vibrant acidity."
