Winemaker Notes
Domaine Billaud-Simon’s Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir opens with a ethereal, highly floral bouquet of white peach, orange blossom, and lime zest underpinned by crushed flint and wet chalk. On the palate, it exhibits extraordinary finesse and purity, balancing a rich, silky texture with a piercing, vibrant acidity characteristic of its amphitheater-like slope. Flavors of green apple, juicy citrus, and a hint of white pepper give way to an intensely mineral, saline finish that lingers long after the first sip.
About Winery
Domaine Billaud-Simon, founded in 1815 in Chablis, is a historic estate whose vineyards lie on the banks of the Serein River, rooted in the region’s famed Kimmeridgian limestone soils rich with fossilized shells. Over generations, the Billaud and Simon families expanded holdings to include prestigious Grand Cru sites such as Les Clos, Vaudésir, Les Preuses, and Les Blanchots, as well as celebrated Premier Crus like Montée de Tonnerre and Vaillons. Known for its pure, mineral-driven Chardonnay, the winery emphasizes stainless steel vinification to preserve terroir clarity, with minimal oak influence. Since 2014, under the stewardship of the Faiveley family, Billaud-Simon continues to honor its legacy while refining quality, producing wines that embody the elegance, precision, and timeless character of Chablis.
