Domaine Billaud-Simon
Chablis Chardonnay
Chablis, Burgundy, France
Bright lemon color with aromas of citrus, stone fruits, biscuit and floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and lemon citrus with notes of vanilla and garden spice. Medium+ finish, vivid acidity ending with vanilla and flinty mineral spice. Nice!

Just a dynamite wine. Medium weight. Hints of orange, green apples, slate . 45 second of lingering goodness. Sensational btl for $35 dollars.

A go-to Chablis, sharp and focused, perfect for pan fried zucchini with tzatziki and feta…

Another 1 hour fade, but not bad for the price.
Thats one thing about the Bongran, you can decant that for several hours & it continues to improve.

A perfectly decent classic Chablis. Green apples & melon, limestone austerity & salinity.
Starts off quite round, with ripe fruit on the forefront. But the acidity & mineral backbone quickly take over giving this delicious mineral & saline linear purity.
Juicy, savoury, fresh. Perfect with grilled mackerel!
Edit: tasted 6m later, with 10h (natural) decant. This gains in complexity pairing the slightly mushroomy, slightly waxy, Mirabelle infused roundness with the typical chalky razor acidity. This is a really nice one that will clearly gain with age! (Bumping up from 8.9 to 9.0)
