2022 Domaine Billaud-Simon Les Blanchots Chablis Grand Cru
Other Reviews....
This is also aromatically quite floral in character with its cool array of citrus confit, tidal pool and plenty of mineral reduction nuances. There is outstanding volume and richness to the bigger-bodied and more powerful, but not more refined, flavors that possess a borderline creamy mid-palate, all wrapped in a clean and markedly dry finale that flashes very fine length. I wouldn't describe this as a classic Blanchots yet it 'works' all the same. Drink through 2030+.

Grown in the steep part near the top of Blanchot, south-east facing, grown on white marl, similar to their plot of Pied d’Aloup which faces it across the valley. Clear fresh primrose colour. The bouquet is elegant and floral yet with very evident concentration. Interesting to have this interplay of elegance and power. Mostly white fruit but some citrus skin and light yellow plum as well in 2022. Drink from 2027-2034.
