Lot #156. Samuel Billaud Chablis Mont de Milieu 2016

Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Score: 92 VM.
"The 2016 Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru was harvested between 25 and 30hl/ha, with 20% aged in wood the rest in stainless steel for 18 months. The slightly longer élevage engenders a more complex bouquet than the Montée de Tonnerre with yellow fruit, green apple, chalk and light musky scents that are very well defined. The palate is very well delineated with a crisp bead of acidity, poised and saline in the mouth and just when you think it will fan out, it segues into a linear and classically lined, understated finish. Excellent." Neal Martin, Vinous, May 2018
Provenance: The Comète Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $85
