From the producer: Beautiful white gold hue and delicate pale green reflections. 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.

Billaud-Simon is an old Chablis estate that produced many lovely wines but also had occasional misses. As Erwan Faiveley put it just before his family bought them out, "They have great terroir, but the wine-making is very so-so."

So the Faiveleys' first move after the acquisition was to install their own team to clean up the wine-making. They also wanted nervier Chablis and decided to move the harvesting date up from the domaine's typical practice.

"A discreet but not invisible application of wood sets off a ripe mix of both white and yellow orchard fruit with similar nuances of iodine and seashore. The wood treatment extends to the palate as well though not so much that it sweetens the clean and dry finish. This always seems to age extremely well, and the 2019 version should be no different. Worth checking out."
