“The 2017 Chablis Les Vaillons 1er Cru is bright, precise and wonderfully lifted. Bright floral notes, orchard fruit, lemon confit and mint are some of the many notes that grace this exquisite Chablis from Billaud-Simon. In this tasting, the 2017 stands out for its aromatic intensity, nuance and class. This is such a pretty wine.”
“Here too there is a background trace of wood setting off the overtly floral and spicy aromas of algae, sea breeze and green apple. The highly seductive flavors possess a caressing mouth feel while delivering average depth but fine length on the bitter lemon-inflected finish. In short, this is pretty but not deep.”
Alcohol: 13%
