Hints of leather and game add complexity to the very primary mouthfeel

Lovely juice though note that like the Aux Fourneaux at least a decade of cellar is recommended

Samuel Billaud, Chablis Mont Milieu Vintage:2020 Glass-staining purple(from a . 58 ha holding). There is a mild exoticism and wood influence on the ripe and fresh nose that offers up enough Chablis character to be persuasive. The exceptionally rich, intense and plush flavors brim with both minerality and dry extract while exhibiting solid length on the powerful, serious and bitter lemon inflected finale. This should drink well young but have no trouble rewarding 5 to 8 years of cellar time.
