Samuel Billaud 1er Cru Sechet Vieilles Vignes

The 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Séchet Vieilles Vignes is wonderful, offering up enticingly marine aromas of citrus oil, oyster shell and rock salt. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, it's layered and multidimensional, with superb depth at the core, racy acids and a long, chalky finish. As ever, it's one of Billaud's finest cuvées.

Pure, stony citrus. Real intensity here, both fruit and acid/lees structure. Deep and long and perfectly balanced for long ageing. Mouth-watering finish.
