2021 Domaine Billaud-Simon Chablis Tete d'Or
Other Reviews....
Discreet if discernible wood sets off cool and pure essence of white orchard fruit, sea breeze and iodine scents. There is excellent underlying tension to the nicely concentrated medium-bodied flavors that possess both ample minerality and delineation on the balanced and lingering finish. This could also use better depth, but the underlying material appears more than up to the task and overall, it's one to consider. Drink through 2026+.

Made up from top sites such as Bas de Chapelot, l’Araignée, plus some from Pargues. Olivier has made up an approximate blend for this sample, including a proportion made in barrel. Tête d’Or will be bottled with the 1ers Crus. Another pale colour. The wood infuses the bouquet without drowning the fruit. Good intensity here, definitely a step up from the straight Chablis, with a citrus point at the finish. Drink from 2024-2027.
