Domaine Billaud-Simon

Domaine Billaud-Simon owns 17 hectares of vineyards in some of the best areas in Chablis. With four grand cru (Les Clos, Les Preuses, Vaudesir and Les Blanchots), as well as four premier cru, (Montée de Tonnerre, Mont-de-Milieu, Fourchaume and Vaillons). The domaine has long been known for its focused, mineral-driven wines thanks to meticulous viticulture in the best sites along with the latest winemaking technology.

Billaud-Simon seek to produce a crisp, mineral style of Chablis with finesse, purity and balance. They are delicious when young, yet offer great ageing potential – the high acidity is complimented by richness of fruit, particularly in the Grand Crus which will typically improve in bottle for at least a decade.

These are crisp, mineral-laden wines that are superb examples of modern style Chablis.

Domaine Billaud-Simon is renowned for producing some of the best wines in Chablis, long recognised for their steely, mineral style. Domaine Billaud Simon owns 17 hectares of vineyards in some of the best areas in Chablis. Most of the domaine’s wines see no oak at all, apart from the Premier Cru Mont de Milieu which is 40% vinified in oak and the Grand Cru Les Blanchots, which is 100% vinified in oak.

Recipe/Tasting Notes - Beautiful white gold hue with delicate pale green glimmers. A seductive and very classic Chablis nose offering vine peach, banana, citrus fruits and brioche. The palate is well-balanced, rich, fresh and elegant. Ripe fruits combine harmoniously with mineral notes to give a soft mouthfeel. A fine example of unoaked Chablis.
100% Chardonnay. 12.5% ABV. Sulphites. Alcohol.

Stories

Domaine Billaud-Simon

The geological heart of the Chablis wine region lies on a bed of marine sediments, algae and shells that formed 155 million years ago, known as Kimmeridgian. This unusual, iodine-rich geology is imparted to the Chardonnay through its roots and gives Chablis wines their unique identity.
Chardonnay ripens in optimal conditions in Chablis, with a semi-continental climate that ensures the perfect balance between richness in sugars and a saline freshness.
