Billaud-Simon Chablis
Billaud-Simon Chablis
Domaine Billaud Simon's prestigious parcel selection. The ambassador of the Domaine, it's a wine of gold and light par excellence. The nose discloses aromas of citrus and white flowers. The palate is rich, smooth and opulent with the perfect balance between a smooth texture, lively acidity, discreet minerality and fruit.

Burghound 89-91♥: Here there is notably better typicity with its nose of ripe pear, mineral reduction and algae. The sleek, delicious and more voluminous flavors that possess solid mid-palate density while displaying good precision on the clean, dry and sneaky long finale. This is worth checking out.
Decanter 91: Much more concentration than Billaud-Simon's Petit Chablis. Mineral notes on the palate add an extra dimension to the apple fruit character, cut with bright lemon citrus acidity. With some white flower notes on the nose, this is a classy example of AP Chablis which will benefit from a further six months in bottle.
