Wine Advocate: 94 Points
Disgorged with two grams per liter dosage Billecart-Salmon's 2009 Extra Brut Vintage is more giving and demonstrative than its 2008 counterpart offering up inviting aromas of crisp stone fruit yellow apple brioche honeycomb and warm pastry. Medium to full-bodied fleshy and enveloping with a pillowy mousse and a generous core of fruit girdled by bright acids it's seamless and complete. Indeed such is its charm and persistence that I tend to prefer it at least for now to the 2008.
