2014 Billaud Simon Chablis Grand Cru Blanchots VV

While there is some wood present it is much less than the approach used by Bernard Billaud and in this case it easily allows the cool, pure and elegant white flower, green apple, iodine and oyster shell aromas to be appreciated. There is fine density and even power to the medium-bodied flavors that are a combination of punch and refinement on the gorgeously long, complex and harmonious finish. This is also really quite impressive, though be aware that it is definitely going to require an extended amount of bottle age.  Burghound 93
