2015  Pouilly-Fuisse

"A racy style, with bracing acidity setting the pace for apple, lemon and baking spice flavors. Persistent, leaving a tactile sensation on the finish. Best from 2018 through 2024. 100 cases imported." - 92pts WS ---- "Here too the wood treatment is subtle if not invisible on the menthol, apple, mandarin orange and floral-scented nose. There is a lovely sense of tension to the delineated and lightly stony medium weight flavors that possess a focused if mildly tangy finish. While not quite as harmonious today as the best of these 2015s, my sense is that this will ultimately come together if given a few years of bottle age." - 91pts/Outstanding BH

2018  Chablis

"The 2018 Chablis Côte de Jouan 1er Cru has a gorgeous bouquet of lemon curd, orange pith and honeysuckle scents that seem to grab the olfactory senses. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, taut and crisp, leading to a complex finish of sour lemon, kumquat and saline notes that linger on the aftertaste. Superb." - 93pts Neal Martin, Vinous

2018  Mont de Milieu

Mont de Milieu -- "The 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu is also performing very well, unwinding in the glass with scents of citrus oil, spring blossom, crisp green orchard fruit and grapefruit. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, it's nicely concentrated, with a tightly wound core, racy acids and a long, beautifully defined finish. This has turned out beautifully." - 92pts WA

2019  

"Riper aromas include those of citrus confit, petrol and a variety of freshy slice white orchard fruit. Here too there is excellent volume to the caressing and palate coating middle weight flavors that possess slightly better depth and persistence on the youthfully austere finale. This is excellent for its level and worth considering." - Outstanding, Top Value, Burghound

2019  

"The 2019 Marsannay Les Crais delivers inviting aromas of raspberries, plums and spices. Medium to full-bodied, pure and supple, it's bright and lively, with a charming core of fruit and refined tannins." - WA

2015  1er Cru Vergelesses

1er Cru Vergelesses

2019  

"The 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Séchet Vieilles Vignes is wonderful, offering up enticingly marine aromas of citrus oil, oyster shell and rock salt. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, it's layered and multidimensional, with superb depth at the core, racy acids and a long, chalky finish. As ever, it's one of Billaud's finest cuvées." - 94pts WA

2018  

"The 2018 Chablis 1er Cru Séchet Vieilles Vignes is a worthy successor to the superb 2017 rendition, delivering aromas of crisp orchard fruit, crushed chalk, white flowers and fresh bread. Medium to full-bodied, layered and incisive, it's concentrated and penetrating, with racy acids and a long, chalky finish." - 93+ WA ---- "The 2018 Chablis Séchet 1er Cru is creamy and resonant in the glass, with striking textural richness and tons of sheer character. A whole range of mineral and soil-driven inflections give the Séchet much of its distinctive character. Graphite, smoke, and earthy notes linger on the finish. More than anything else, the Séchet is a wine of real substance." - 92-94 Vinous

2015  Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru Les Vergelesses

Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru Les Vergelesses -- " Deeply pitched aromas of cassis, poached plum, spice and a touch of violet introduce rich, succulent, indeed even opulent medium-bodied flavors that possess a velvety mouth feel, all wrapped in a dusty, moderately firm and sappy finale that evidences a touch of bitter cherry pit." - Burghound

2014  

Deep, almost-inky garnet core, with purple reflections at the rim. The aromatics, too, reflect a riper vintage, with notes of black cherry, black plum, wet violets, a hint of licorice, black pepper, and forest floor. Nearly full-bodied and quite seductive to sip now, it remains well-framed by a smoky, stony mineral quality and balancing acidity.
