Billaud-Simon Chablis 2021
The cooler classic edge to the 2021 vintage has clearly played into the house style here as well. The fruit is tucked back a little further than in more recent warm, modern vintage and the wines have a wonderful energy and punch to them. These wines are delicious and approachable now, but there is some underlying foundations to the wines that will see them develop further with a little cellar dwelling, particularly the Chablis and Tete d'Or.
Beautiful white gold hue with delicate pale green glimmers. A seductive and classic Chablis nose offering vine peach, banana, citrus fruits and brioche.
The palate is well-balanced, rich, fresh and elegant. The smooth, rich structure lingers on the end palate. Ripe fruits combine harmoniously with mineral notes to give a soft mouthfeel.
