Domaine Billaud Simon Chablis 1c. Montee de Tonnerre 2023 0,75l

Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre from Domaine Billaud-Simon is regarded as one of the finest premier cru sites facing the grand cru slope. Steep vineyards on Kimmeridgian limestone and marl produce chardonnay of great tension and cool elegance. The bouquet offers lemon, lime and green apple alongside white flowers, chalk and a hint of smoke. On the palate the wine is linear, tight and intensely mineral, driven by vibrant acidity and mouth-watering citrus fruit. Sensitive oak handling polishes the texture and adds an extra layer of complexity. The long, salty and citrus-inflected finish makes this Chablis a superb choice with oysters, seafood, sushi and pure, simply prepared fish.

Ageing in stainless steel preserves the mineral tension and the clear, fresh Chablis character.

Domaine Billaud Simon

In France—Frankreich—in Chablis, Domaine Billaud Simon carries a lineage that reaches back to 1815—born in the wake of the Napoleonic era and still defined by discipline. Chardonnay is the centre of gravity, rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone where fossils and clay sharpen the sense of place....

The grape variety: Chardonnay

Chardonnay is a globally renowned white grape from Burgundy, capable of crisp, mineral, creamy or oak-aged styles. Its flavours range from citrus and apple to peach, butter, nuts and toast.

It pairs with seafood, chicken, creamy pasta, mushrooms, lobster and soft cheeses. Chardonnay is exciting because it can be beautifully simple or profoundly complex. Chardonnay
