Samuel Billaud Chablis 1Er Cru Sechet 2024

Samuel Billaud Chablis Premier Cru Séchet is an exceptionally precise and mineral Chardonnay from the left bank of Chablis, sourced from 70 year old vines in the historic Vaillons vineyard.

Once owned by Samuel's great grandmother, this tiny parcel produces a wine of remarkable concentration and finesse. Fermented and matured entirely in stainless steel, it reveals delicate aromas of green apple, lemon zest and white peach, layered with crushed limestone, sea spray and a subtle iodine character. The palate is tightly wound and intensely mineral, with crisp citrus, firm acidity and a fine, almost chalky texture. Long, saline and wonderfully persistent, with outstanding ageing potential. Superb alongside oysters or delicate seafood.
