Domaine Billaud Simon Chablis Premier Cru Les Vaillons

Sourced from three separate plots, amongst the warmest of the 1er Cru vineyards, it is the site in Roncières in particular, with its 95-year-old vines, which gives the wine depth and complexity. A captivating mouthful already but will reveal much more with time in bottle.

"Here too there is just enough wood to mention framing the cool and bright aromas of mineral reduction lemon confit and refreshing sa breeze nuances. There is excellent density, especially for the vintage, to the middle weight flavours that are rich and caressing while maintaining good verve that carries over to the clean, dry and youthfully austere finale. This could use more depth but the fine potential is evident. Lovely. Drink 2029+" [Burghound, 10/10/2024] 91-93 Points
