Billaud-Simon Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru 2023

95 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Floral flourishes, lemon curd, yuzu and crushed water crackers unfurl from the glass. The sizzling acidic tension is promptly met by supple mid-palate sap. Hazelnuts tack onto the gently tapering, sweet-fruited finish. Tempting now, this will only improve with time. Olivier aged 50% of the wine in barrels of two and three wines. (2025)"

93 points Jasper Morris, MW: "More lemon than lime in colour. They have a larger holding on the cooler slope than the southerly facing side and that shows in the cool classicism of the nose. The sunshine delivers energy at the back of the palate, just a little classic iodine as well, and excellent length. (Jul 2025)"

93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 3 parcels totaling .49 ha that come from both sides of the appellation; 50% wood). An expressive and airy nose reflects mildly exotic notes of white peach, citrus confit, orange peel and spice.. The palate impression sappy medium-bodied flavors possess a caressing and highly seductive texture while displaying a lovely sense of refinement on the compact, moderately dry and balanced finale. This is pretty much textbook Vaudésir. Drink: 2031+. (Oct 2025)"
