Domaine Billaud-Simon
Chablis Premier Cru Mont de Milieu
The name “Mont de Milieu” makes reference to the defining characteristic of this hillside which previously marked a boundary between two points. On one side was the Chablis constituency (an area across which a Lord or town had the right to jurisdiction), at the time in the Champagne constituency, and on the other side was the Fleys constituency which fell under the Duchy of Bourgogne
Planted on the right bank in kimmeridgien clay-limestones, Billaud-Simons 0.277ha plot sits on a south/southeast facing slope. The vineyards are farmed organically and will be fully certified beginning with the 2025 vintage.

Clear, bright hue with light green tinges. This Premier Cru reveals a remarkably rich aromatic profile with ripe citrus fruits and white flowers. The palate is rich and round with exceptional length.

"This is an elegant wine. Gentle, honey-dipped golden apple, bread dough and dried citrus-peel aromas fill the nose. A textured roundness opens the palate followed by a touch of tart acidity that is immediately subsumed by a subtle creaminess that carries to the finish."
— Anna-Christina Cabrales, 2025
