Another strong and final btl from the vintage. This was 110% fresh and in the pocket. Pale green gold w/ all the Chablis signatures for minerality, salinity, citrus & stone fruit. Pristine & fabulous! 93+ Paid $35 on release.
Dull yellow. Floral, briny, iodine tones on the nose. Medium body with some glycerine (and a hint of vanilla) imparted by a kiss of oak. Highly focused lemon peel, salinity, light herbs, and great acidity. Cleansing and fresh. Outstanding Premier Cru that could be held but is completely enjoyable now. My kind of Chablis without any excess fat.
Perfect tonight w/ Rainbow Trout. This producer has spotty issues w/ premox but this btl was 110% fresh and in the pocket. Pale green gold color with all the Chablis signatures for minerality, salinity, citrus and stone fruit. I haven't bought any addl Billaud Simon since the 2017 vintage. Hopefully they have switched to the Diam cork by now? This btl was great! Fingers crossed on my remaining btls.
