Description

Domaine Billaud-Simon is a renowned producer of Chablis wines, with a history dating back to the early 19th century. The estate is located in the heart of the Chablis region, in the village of Chablis itself, and is known for its exceptional terroir and commitment to traditional winemaking techniques.

One of the estate's most celebrated wines is the Montee de Tonnerre Premier Cru, which is made from Chardonnay grapes grown on a steep slope overlooking the Serein river. This wine is known for its complex aromas of citrus, white flowers, and minerals, as well as its crisp acidity and long, elegant finish.

The production process for Montee de Tonnerre is meticulous, with the grapes hand-harvested and sorted before being gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for up to 18 months, which adds depth and complexity to the final product.

Overall, Domaine Billaud-Simon's Montee de Tonnerre Premier Cru is a true expression of the Chablis terroir, with its minerality, freshness, and elegance. It is a wine that will age gracefully for many years, and is a must-try for any lover of Chardonnay or white Burgundy.

Tasting notes

91 Points - The wine Advocate

Notes of citrus oil, crisp green apple, fresh peach and oyster shell introduce the 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive wine that's tightly wound after its recent bottling. Bottled under Diam like all of these 2018s, it will reward some bottle age.
