Description

2023 Chablis, Montée de Tonnerre, 1er Cru, Samuel Billaud, BurgundyOne of Samuels two parcels here sits atop Chapelot, the other in the triangle of Monte de Tonnerre. A good 80% is made in tank and the remainder in used barrel. As usual, there is plenty of complexity in this wine; it somehow manages to be dense, weighty and chewy yet also prickly, zesty and energetic. The overall feeling is of a suave and sophisticated wine with plenty of stuffing. Adam Bruntlett, Senior Buyer, Berry Bros. & Rudd

gentle whole bunch pressing

and fresh bread dough

The palate is medium-bodied with a succulent

This is borne out by the quality of the fruit

This is tremendously harmonious on the nose
