Domaine Billaud Simon Chablis 'Vaudésir' Grand Cru 2023
Vintage Character
Domaine Billaud-Simon Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir 2023 comes from one of Chablis’s seven Grand Cru climats, in the heart of the Grand Cru hillside on the right bank of the Serein. The 2023 vintage in Chablis is widely regarded as successful, with a warm growing season tempered by enough freshness to deliver ripe fruit without sacrificing the region’s hallmark tension. Vaudésir is especially prized for its amphitheatre-like shape and sheltered exposures, which tend to produce a more graceful, aromatic expression of Chardonnay over classic Kimmeridgian limestone and marl, giving the wine both breadth and a distinctly saline, chalky drive.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The wine opens with lemon zest, white peach, green apple and acacia, followed by flinty notes, oyster shell and a subtle touch of lees-derived almond and cream. On the palate it is concentrated yet finely cut, with high acidity, a silky mid-palate and a long, mineral finish that balances citrus precision with Grand Cru depth. Its profile makes it a natural partner for turbot with beurre blanc, lobster risotto, or simply grilled scallops with brown butter, where its freshness and stony energy can lift richer textures.
Winery Background
Founded in 1815, Domaine Billaud-Simon has long been one of Chablis’s reference-point estates, and since joining the Faiveley family in 2014 it has combined historical pedigree with even greater technical precision. The domaine is known for a restrained, terroir-led philosophy: careful vineyard work, parcel-by-parcel vinification, and an emphasis on preserving fruit purity rather than masking it with heavy oak. Under Olivier Bailly, the wines are typically fermented and aged with a strong role for stainless steel and fine lees, yielding Chablis of clarity, tension and site transparency that consistently place the estate among the appellation’s most dependable names.
