2023 Chablis Samuel Billaud
£30.00
“There is a great purity to the aromas of nectarine and lemon peel in the delicious village Chablis from Samuel Billaud. It’s lively and fresh, with a tension that carries the wine to a lingering finish. The grapes are from three parcels: two on the left bank – Pargues (near Préhy) and the back side of the Montmains slope – and on the right bank, vines at the base of Montée de Tonnerre.”
92 Points, Charles Curtis MW, Decanter
“More steely and herbal than the Petit Chablis but still scented with jasmine and tilleul (linden leaf). Rich and beautifully balanced on the palate. A little more persistent than the Petit Chablis. ”
16.5/20 Julia Harding MW for Jancis Robinson MW
