    Owner and history

    The Domaine Samuel Billaud vineyard extends across prestigious Chablis terroirs, characterized by limestone and clay-limestone soils. These lands, rich in marine fossils, impart a unique minerality to the wines, an essential characteristic of great Chablis.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Samuel Billaud follows traditional methods with meticulous attention to detail at every stage. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures, the wine is aged on its fine lees, preserving its vibrant freshness while adding volume on the palate. This subtle aging process imparts a silky texture and remarkable aromatic complexity. The 2022 Les Grands Terroirs cuvée benefits from precise winemaking that reveals all the nuances of its terroir. The grapes are carefully selected and fermented slowly to preserve their freshness. The wine is then aged for several months, primarily in stainless steel tanks to maintain its purity, with a small portion in oak barrels to add a touch of elegance and complexity. The result is a wine of great finesse, combining freshness, minerality, and structure.
