From his own vines in chablis, Samuel Billaud hand-harvests 45-year-old vines from the premier cru Mont de Milieu — fermented in stainless steel, then 20% aged in 600L oak barrels to build texture. Bottled unfined for purity.
- Nose: Citrus, green apple, flint, white blossom, and wet stones — precise, lifted, and strikingly mineral
- Palate: Taut and focused — lemon, pear, grapefruit, and Kimmeridgian chalk with vibrant, knife-edged acidity
- Finish: Long and saline — flinty persistence, fresh citrus, and a clean, electric mineral thread
