Tasting Notes
This is classic, bone-dry Chablis from the family firm of Billaud-Simon, one of the region’s outstanding producers. Despite the sunny vintage, the wine offers a very pleasant acidity on the palate. It is currently revealing aromas of pear, quince, apricot and peach combined with fresh citrus notes.
Domaine Billaud-Simon has been a part of the Chablis wine region since 1815 and covers almost 17 hectares of vineyards in which Chardonnay reigns supreme. All of the parcels at Domaine Billaud-Simon are planted within a two kilometre radius, on the left and right banks of the Serein, in the heart of this historical appellation.
Winery notes (2019 Vintage)
“Beautiful yellow colour with pale green reflections. The nose is alluring with a distinctive Chablis style of vine peaches, banana, citrus and a touch of brioche. The palate is well-balanced between richness, freshness and elegance. The rich and supple texture lingers on the end palate. Intense ripe fruits blend with vanilla, mineral and vegetal notes and complement the wine’s soft structure.”
