Domaine Billaud-Simon
Chablis Tête d'Or
The Ambassador of the Domaine, our Chablis “Tête d’Or” is a wine of “Gold and Light” par excellence! For over 10 years, this prestige cuvée has been produced from the Domaine’s very best parcels planted in the village appellation. They are situated next to the Premier and Grand Crus. In order to emphasize the care taken when producing this wine, special packaging was created for the flagship of the Domaine.

Beautiful white gold hue and delicate pale green reflections. The nose discloses aromas of citrus and white flowers. The palate is rich, smooth and opulent with the perfect balance between a smooth texture, lively acidity, discreet minerality and fruit.

“Tank sample. More intense and riper nose than the regular bottling. Very tense on the palate – like a coiled spring! Chalky texture on the finish. A very definite step up from the regular village Chablis.”
