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: Very pretty golden yellow in colour shaded with gentle 
                   pale green. Bright, luminous and limpid.

THE TASTE: The taste is a pleasant compromise between richness, freshness and elegance; it remains full and supple right through to the finish. The ripe fruit with a hint of vanilla and a light vegetal and mineral touch are all in gentle harmony with the softness of its structure. It is a Chablis for the pure pleasure of the palate.

THE NOSE: The nose is irresistibly spellbounding. It Is a pretty example of a typical Chablis with the fruitness of peaches, bananas, citrus fruit and the softness of warm buns. Light vegetal shades harmonise with a discreet mineral touch, clean and fresh with finesse and reserve.
