Collection: Samuel Billaud

Domaine Samuel Billaud is located in the well-established Chablis region in the far north of Burgundy and, since its foundation in 2009, has been on the watch list of every serious Chablis fan. Why? Because Samuel is producing wine of extreme finesse, showcasing the best of what Chablis has to offer. He knows the region inside out and has an intimate understanding of its signature style.

Samuel makes delicious terroir driven wines with minimum intervention during the winemaking process. This results in an array of beautiful Chardonnays that are set to seduce. The crunchy acidity and minerality of the Kimmeridgian soils shine through with deft elegance. The taste is a mix of fresh apple, white peach, silex (resulting from the deposits of flint found in the soil) and oyster shell flavours among with some delightful brioche aromas. These wines are to be placed on the podium of the very best Chablis wines.

The name of the Domaine might not sound familiar just yet. However, the Billaud family has been making Chablis since 1815 under the name Billaud-Simon. Samuel has learned and worked his way up at Billaud-Simon making a name for himself as a very skilled winemaker. His talent for winemaking has been nurtured and developed at Billaud-Simon by making its last twenty vintages or so. - Importer Note
