Once again there is a sleek mouth feel to the finer if not quite as intense and delineated middle weight flavors that exude a fine bead of minerality onto the saline and moderately dry finale. I quite like this as it's like rolling a small pebble around in the mouth and in contrast to the prior wines, this one is going to require at least a few years of patience first.   \u003cstrong\u003eBurghound 91-93 Sweet Spot Outstanding!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2017 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre comes from two parcels of around 40 years old, matured in 20% used wood. It has a more expressive bouquet than the Mont de Milieu, richer and slightly honeyed with scents of chalk and linden emerging with time. The palate is very well balanced with a fine line of acidity, linear and taut and perhaps just needing a little more depth to develop on the finish. Otherwise this is very fine, if just missing the panache of Billaud's other Premier Crus. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinous\/Neal Martin 90-92\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037461139695,"sku":"5659","price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/simon_mdt_289134d5-2785-4b29-8086-8f62f9692905.jpg?v=1731312901","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2017-samuel-billaud-chablis-1er-montee-de-tonnerre","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
