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.

2014  Les Brules

Les Brules -- "Generous but not dominant wood frames a broad-ranging nose of citrus, pear, white peach, apple and floral scents. The delicious and punchy middle weight flavors possess slightly better depth and length on the balanced finale. As usual this is an extremely rich and generously proportioned effort but one where the bright and moderately firm acidity serve to maintain the balance. As such this should be more than capable of repaying 4 to 6 years of cellar time." - 91pts/Oustanding Burghound

2017  Les Longeroies

Les Longeroies -- "This is attractively fresh and bright with its broader range of aromatic components that include red currant, cherry, spice and soft floral wisps. There is notably better volume and density to the equally delicious medium weight flavors that conclude in a refreshing and naturally sweet finish. This is almost gulpable today yet it has the underlying material and structure to reward 4 to 6 years of cellaring." - 89-91pts BH

2019  Montee de Tonnerre

"The 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is excellent, unwinding in the glass with scents of citrus zest, white flowers, wet stones, crushed chalk and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's intense and tightly wound, with a racy spine of acidity and chalky grip. Concluding with a long, penetrating finish, this is another wine from Billaud that will merit and reward some patience." - 93+pts WA

2016  Chassagne-Montrachet Monopole Rouge

"The wood influence is a bit more prominent that it still remains relatively subtle and easily allows the spicy aromas of earth, lavender and red currant that evidence an interesting hint of tangerine peel to shine. The rich, intense and well-delineated medium weight flavors possess a positively gorgeous mouth feel while displaying outstanding persistence on the balanced finish that really fans out as it sits on the palate. This is first-rate." - 91-93pts/Outstanding BH
