Samuel Billaud Séchet Vieilles Vignes Chablis 1er Cru 2022
This 1er Cru Séchet is mineral, textural and long.
Samuel Billaud is considered to be one of the select few outstanding producers in Chablis. Testament to this is Samuel’s ability to bring out the unique characteristics of each of his fantastic terroirs. His wines have a distinctive elegance, balance and complexity that is seldom achieved with such precision. The Séchet is from an old vineyard that belonged to Samuel’s great grandmother. The vines are 70 years old on average and located on the left bank which is part of the 1er cru “Vaillons”.
Seafood, lobster, prawns and a selection of goat cheese
The 1er Cru “Séchet” is matured entirely in stainless steel tanks adding to its strong acidity and tension. The green fruits and stone fruits are very fine and showing a great depth.
In addition, the minerality, iodine and salivating mouth fill are delightful. It is an impressive Séchet indeed.
