The Triptych of Grands Crus (Vintage 2024)

2 x 75cl Domaine Samuel Billaud – Chablis Grand Cru "Blanchots" 2024
Vinous 96/100
Located on a steep, southeast-facing slope with white clay-limestone marl soils, Blanchots is the most ethereal and floral of the Grands Crus. In this 2024 vintage, it unfolds a magical bouquet of white flowers (hawthorn, ivy), lime zest, orchard pear, and a saline, chalky mineral note. The palate is crystallinely refined, supported by a delicate texture and a lingering, refreshing, and mouthwatering finish.

2 x 75cl Domaine Samuel Billaud – Chablis Grand Cru "The Heroines" 2024
Decanter 94/100
Renowned as one of the most complex, elegant, and poetic Chablis wines, Les Preuses rests on dense clay soils overlying Kimmeridgian limestone. The 2024 vintage offers a masterful display of balance: the nose reveals aromas of white peach, pink grapefruit, fresh butter, and flint. On the palate, the wine is enveloping, with a remarkable silky density, traversed by a textbook mineral backbone.

2 x 75cl Domaine Samuel Billaud – Chablis Grand Cru "Vaudésir" 2024
Decanter 95/100
Nicknamed the "Valley of Desire," this amphitheater-shaped terroir benefits from a sunny and sheltered microclimate. Vaudésir is the most full-bodied, ripe, and luscious of the three. The 2024 vintage opens with remarkably pure fruit (candied citrus, nectarine) enhanced by notes of fresh almond and verbena. The palate is ample, juicy, and caressing, perfectly balanced by the natural tension of the terroir.

Why should you fall for this exceptional gift set?

The signature of an elite winemaker: Samuel Billaud masters the aging process perfectly (in vats and barrels of several wines) to preserve the brightness of the fruit and the chalky tension without ever weighing down the substance.

A masterclass in local produce: This set offers a captivating comparison between the floral elegance of Blanchots, the mineral and racy complexity of Les Preuses, and the tactile generosity of Vaudésir.

A potential school daycare provider: From the 2024 vintage, these six Grands Crus will develop magnificently in the cellar for 10 to 20 years, gradually developing tertiary notes of undergrowth, dried fruit and white truffle.
