Samuel Billaud is considered to be one of the select few outstanding producers in Chablis. Testament to this is Samuel’s ability to draw out the unique characteristics of each of his fantastic terroirs. His wines have a distinctive elegance, balance and complexity that is seldom achieved with such precision. There are two vineyards used to make this wine. One located in the Haut-Chapelot part of Chablis with vines of 35 years of age and the other located in Montée de Tonnerre also with very old vines. 25% of the wine is matured in 600 litre oak barrels to add subtle richness.
The 2023 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is sourced from the Chapelot and Montée de Tonnerre lieux-dits, planted in 1976 and 1971, respectively. Aged 80% in tank and 20% in used 500-liter barrels for 18 months, it soars from the glass with a rich bouquet of apricot, beeswax, pear and grapefruit zest. Full-bodied, textural and enveloping, it’s underpinned by tangy acidity and concludes with a long, chalky finish. Time will reveal its full potential
