2023 | Domaine Billaud-Simon Chablis | Burgundy 1.5L Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru The 2022 Riesling Lieserer NiederbergThe village level Chablis from Billaud Simon is a classic expression of the terroir, with aromas of lemon peel and white flowers and a fine, silky texture. The acidity is balanced if not pronounced, giving the wine finesse without a lot of tension. Rgisseur Olivier Bailly notes that this final year of organic conversion was a struggle with the weather, but he is pleased with the final blend, which included 25% cask fermented wine. 92 Pts Decanter
