Bright silver/straw-colored and coming from 50-year-old vines, the NV Champagne 1er Cru Selection Brut is made from 70% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, with 60% from the 2020 vintage and reserve wine from 2019 and 2018. The nose takes on more salinity but remains fresh, with notes of delicate flint, wet stones, honeydew melon, and raspberries. Medium-bodied, juicy, and inviting, with lovely purity and freshness through the palate, it has a pillowy mousse, a lovely, rounded texture, and some very pleasing pastry notes. It is quite appealing now and should continue to offer a wide window of enjoyment over the coming 8-10 years. 6 grams per liter dosage. - Audrey Frick

Disgorged in May 2020, the latest release of the NV Extra-Brut Premier Cru Sélection is showing well, exhibiting aromas of citrus oil, white flowers, peach and fresh pastry. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly layered and precise, it's charming and beautifully refined, with a somewhat more chiseled profile reflecting Hébrart's move from Brut to Extra-Brut for this bottling. - WK

Sleek and well-knit, with a creamy nappe to the mousse that lightly coats the palate and carries flavors of yellow pear, candied lemon peel and biscuit. A minerally underpinning of smoke and oyster shell notes comes to the forefront on the finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Disgorged February 2023. Drink now. - AN

The NV Brut Sélection is a blend from Mareuil-sur-Ay, Avenay-Val-d’Or and Bisseuil. Aromatic and vibrant, the Brut Sélection impresses with its balance and sensuality. Lemon confit, white flowers, apricot, mint, chamomile and plum meld together in an understated, classy Champagne ready to go now. I loved it. Dosage is 6 grams per liter. Disgorged: November 24, 2022.
