Samuel Billaud Chablis 1Er Sechet 2021

Samuel Billaud is considered to be one of the select few outstanding producers in Chablis. Testament to this is Samuel’s ability to bring 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 Séchet is from an old vineyard that belonged to Samuel’s great grandmother. The vines are 70 years old on average and located on the left bank which is part of the 1er cru “Vaillons”.

I love imaging the planting of these 60 ares, done by Samuel's great-grandmother after World War II. These vines are family gems. Made entirely in stainless steel, the wine has a sassy, lemony and salty verve. The mid-palate shows some bread dough, water cracker and mixed citrus. Review Date: 01/2023 94 points Tim Atkin

From a .60 ha holding of 80+ year old vines This is also aromatically cool and restrained with its overtly citrus-suffused aromas of ripe white orchard fruit, iodine and ocean breeze. There is borderline painful intensity to the dense, sappy and markedly stony flavors that conclude in a strikingly long, moderately dry and well-balanced finale. This is packed with potential and should prove to be especially long-lived. This beauty is first-rate Séchet. Burghound Sweet Spot Outstanding! Review Date: 10/2022 93 points Burghound
