sensory evaluation: Generous nature of this bottle tasted by JPR Lede oenologist and Georges Pertuiset President of the French Sommelier association, Bernard and Samuel Billaud winegrowers


Appearance: Pale yellow-gold cloak with green reflection. 
                     The appearance of youth.

Palate: richness, strength, mellowness, liveliness and class form a harmonious whole with power and elegance. The fruit and vigour of the primary aromas rival with mineral crustacean steadily displaying its presence. What the nose perceives is firmly asserted by the palate. The finish  is everlasting, marking the taste buds, and imprints itself upon the memory. A grand, a very grand Chablis. 
A wine which must be deserved.

The Nose: in this perfection of delicacy, the pure flows alongside the virginal. 
We discover gentleness, smoothness, and  strength through a succession of fresh notes of lemon, citrus, vanilla, menthol, fern leaf, fresh butter with notes of hazelnut.. against a background of faint iodine mineral. Everything is neatly organized, 
in perfect balanced harmony.

Wine/food harmony: Grilled lobster with parsley and basil sauce – 
Sautéed'escalope of foie gras on a bed of honey –Fillet of John Dory in chervil butter – Guinea-fowl with gammon and sweet peppers – Quail terrine – Ham and cheese savouries - Fromage frais and matured cheeses -  Wild peach salad and pistachio brioche – Lemon meringue pastry..
