  • Goedhuis, December 2022

    Vaudésir is a sheltered vineyard with the ability to produce very broad styled wines. This fine cuvée reflects an initial tight Chablis minerality, bright and zesty ahead of some head turning breadth of rich warm fruit. Flavours of clotted cream and Seville orange. A deep and full wine, with great length, fully justifying its Grand Cru status.

  • Burghound, October 2022, Score: 92-94

    pure and notably more elegant nose offers up its aromas of pear, apple, spice, white flower, iodine and a hint of oyster shell. There is first-rate delineation to the gorgeously textured, even delicate, flavors that exhibit fine cut on the markedly dry, lemony and youthfully austere finale. This beauty offers a clear step up and is a wine that should also repay up to a decade of keeping. Sweet spot. Drink 2029+

  • Jasper Morris MW, December 2022, Score: 93-95

    Billaud-Simon normally have three plots, but one is currently pulled out. The two remaining are on the reverse slope. The last to be picked and a good crop as safely protected by bougies. All in tank now but will finish off in some demi-muids. Good concentration but on the stricter side and I think the extra air from the wood will do it good. Fine long finish, so this should work out very well. Drink from 2027-2032.

The Billaud-Simon name is long-established in Chablis, dating back to 1815 when Charles-Louis-Noël Billaud purchased his first vineyards. The estate remained in family ownership for 200 years until Erwan Faiveley purchased Billaud-Simon for Joseph Faiveley in 2015. This represents a new era for the Faiveley family, one of the Côte d’Or’s most significant vineyard owners, now investing their expertise and commitment to producing great wines in the Yonne and Chablis with approximately 18 hectares of exceptional vineyard holdings including four premiers crus and four grands crus. Under the guidance of Wine Director Olivier Bailly, they remain respectful to the traditions of the estate and continue to sell the wines under the Billaud-Simon name. The style is graceful and pure. Olivier seeks to make wines with true appellational authenticity. Oak is kept to minimal levels, only used judiciously, allowing the natural fruit content to express itself to a maximum.Read less

Region

Chablis

Chablis is world famous for its fine white wines produced from the Chardonnay grape. The best vineyards are perched above the winding Serein river and are south or southwest facing ensuring better ripeness in this cooler climate. It has four appellation levels. Petit Chablis is the most modest and simple followed by Chablis, which is the largest and most prominent. Premier cru Chablis is the third largest appellation and encompasses almost 40 different climats or vineyards including the famed Montée de Tonnerre, Fourchaumes and Mont de Milieu. The most noble of all Chablis are the grand crus of which there are 7 climats in total Bougros, Les Preuses, Vaudésir, Grenouilles, Valmur, Les Clos and Blanchot. The wines of Chablis have remained some of the best value in the world, particularly their superb grand crus which can easily cost 50% less than its closest revered white grand cru neighbour, Corton Charlemagne.
