Product Description: Elegance and precision characterise the Domaine Samuel Billaud Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses 2023. Situated on a gently sloping section of the Grand Cru hillside between Vaudésir and Bougros, Les Preuses is revered for wines that unite refinement with quiet power. The vineyard rests on classic Kimmeridgian limestone soils packed with marine fossils, giving the wine its unmistakable chalky minerality and saline lift. The 2023 vintage delivered beautifully balanced fruit, combining ripe citrus character with preserved natural acidity. Samuel Billaud’s careful vinification, favouring stainless steel and restrained neutral oak, allows the terroir to express itself with clarity and composure. Aromatically the wine shows lemon peel, white peach and green apple layered over crushed shell and wet stone. On the palate it is poised and finely textured, neither as delicate as Blanchot nor as powerful as Les Clos, instead occupying a harmonious middle ground. The structure is firm yet polished, supported by a persistent mineral backbone and vibrant energy. With cellaring it will develop greater complexity while retaining freshness and definition. It pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, turbot and refined shellfish dishes.

Product Description: Purity and refinement distinguish the Domaine Samuel Billaud Chablis Grand Cru Blanchot 2023. Blanchot sits on the eastern edge of the Grand Cru slope, where cooler morning exposures and pale Kimmeridgian limestone soils encourage delicacy, aromatics and fine structure rather than sheer power. The site is known for producing the most elegant and floral of the Grand Crus, and the 2023 vintage captures that identity with remarkable clarity. Careful vineyard management ensured balanced ripeness while preserving vibrant natural acidity. Samuel Billaud’s restrained élevage, combining stainless steel with subtle neutral oak, enhances texture while maintaining transparency of terroir. In the glass the wine shows lifted citrus blossom, white peach and lemon curd over a distinct chalk and oyster shell minerality. Compared with the muscularity of Les Clos, Blanchot offers a more airy, satin-textured profile with graceful intensity. The palate unfolds gently yet persistently, revealing depth through precision rather than weight. With time in bottle it will gain honeyed and hazelnut nuances while retaining its crystalline line of acidity. It pairs beautifully with scallops, poached lobster, delicate white fish or lightly creamy seafood preparations.
