2019 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros, Samuel Billaud
One of the best Grand Cru vineyards in Chablis, with a south-easterly exposition and a very steep slope, Bougros in the hands of M. Billaud is a wine of mind-boggling intensity. Again here we have the hallmark poise and delineation expected from this address, with a complex palate that marries orange peel, smoky, chalky mineral notes and juicy bramley apple effortlessly. It is impressively approachable and seductive already.
