Samuel Billaud - Bourgogne d'Or 2023 750ml
"Samuel Billaud is considered to be one of the select few outstanding producers in Chablis, able 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. The grapes for this wine come from Auxerrois and Mâconnais.
The grapes are harvested by hand. In the vineyard, the yields are managed strictly to accentuate the concentration of the grapes. Samuel chooses the harvest date precisely to ensure every plot is at optimal ripeness. Grapes are pressed in the pneumatic press, then undergoes alcoholic fermentation in small stainless steel tanks." - Clos Cachet
"The 2023 Bourgogne d’Or comes half from Mâcon-Lugny and half from Auxerrois. It has a simple, bright sunny bouquet with melon and grapefruit scents. The palate is fresh and taut, lightly waxed in texture with a brisk finish. Fine" - Neal Martin (Vinous)
