Billaud/Samuel Chablis "Les Grands Terroirs" 2022

92 points Andy Howard, MW (Decanter): "Pretty forceful, direct acidity here. Classic Chablis style. Will age. Comes from two plots situated on the left bank of the Serein, with one positioned below Montée de Tonnerre. They are fermented and kept separate before blending. Mostly hand-harvested. Drinking Window: 2024-2028. (10/18/23)"

89-92 points/'5 Star Wine,' Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "A blend of three great sites, Les Pargues (35 year old vines), Bas de Chapelot (40), and Les Quarts (90 year old), and some Fontenottes. Bright pale colour. Excellent tension, even bitterness. This definitely needs more elevage so will be bottled later than the Petit Chablis. Some riper notes before a much more saline finish. Impeccable and totally Chablis. Drink from 2025-2028. Tasted: June 2023."

'Outstanding/Top Value'/89-92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Cool, pretty and airy aromas include those of green apple, iodine, mineral reduction and a subtle floral wisp. There is again excellent punch, volume and richness to the caressing yet unusually powerful medium-bodied flavors that exude a discreet minerality on the clean, sneaky long and dry finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This could also be approached young yet should have no trouble repaying mid-term cellaring. Drink: 2028+. (Aug 2023)"

91 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Chablis Grands Terroirs has a captivating nose with hints of beeswax and almond complementing the citrus fruit. The palate is very well balanced with the weight of a Premier Cru. Fine delineation and salinity, there is just a touch of spice that enlivens the finish. But overall, this is very controlled. Great value. Drink: 2024-2032. (Aug 2024)"

91 points La Revue du Vin de France: "The range starts with Chablis 2022, which smells of ripe fruit. A full-bodied wine, with a fine finish, invigorated by a lemony aftertaste. (2025)"
