Septembre 2024 (Millésime 2023)

This luxurious, rich Chablis merits its name, 'Golden Head', with its rich apricot and quince nose, hints of cream and spice and a dense, sensual texture. A slight point of pleasant bitterness brings freshness on the palate. This wine will likely please lovers of a Côte d'Or style, and although it lacks the chiselled character loved by some, it has its own unique charm. The grapes are from nearly 3ha of vines in the L’Araignée and Le Bas de Chapelot parcels, located at the base of premier cru Montée de Tonnerre.

Octobre 2023 (Millésime 2022)

Very golden in both colour and character. Plenty of spice notes at the moment, along with crisp acidity. Will be very classy. More than a touch of Chassagne about this. Longer maturation than the 'straight' Chablis, the best plots go into this. Maturation partly in tank, partly in barrels (25%).

Septembre 2024 (Millésime 2022)

A whiff of banana gives way to flavors of peach, melon and yellow flowers in this silky white. Its vibrant structure focuses the flavors on the long aftertaste, where a mineral note peeks through.

(from 2 parcels situated in the village of Bas de Chapelot raised in 25 to 30% five+ year old wood). There is enough wood to merit pointing out on the more floral-suffused nose that reflects notes of pear, wet stone and a hint of algae. The sleek, intense and precise medium-bodied flavors possess fine mid-palate density while delivering notably better depth and persistence on the more compact and youthfully austere finale. If you like a bit of wood in your Chablis, and have the patience to wait for 3 to 5 years, the Billaud Tête d’Or is almost always excellent with time in bottle.

Octobre 2023 (Millésime 2022)

(from 2 parcels situated in the villages Bas de Chapelot raised in 25 to 30% five+ year old wood). A discreet dollop of wood sets off a similar set of aromas that offer a hint of iodine. The mouthfeel of the medium weight flavors is also sleek and vibrant with a slightly finer texture that carries over to the balanced, youthfully austere and slightly more compact finale. This is very good for its level and also worth considering.
