Samuel continues to make many of the most exciting wines coming out of Chablis today, equal in quality to Jean-Marie and Bernard Raveneau, but at a fraction of the price. His 2020’s are a great range. Samuel decided to pick early, from the 28th August to the 6th September, and to age all his wines for at least 10 months on the fine lees, in order to achieve a winning combination of ripe, appley fruit on the nose, fresh, succulent texture on the palate and fine minerality and salinity on the finish. Samuel likens his 2020’s to his 2017’s – high praise indeed as the 2017’s are currently developing into spectacular wines.
Victoria Moore, The Telegraph, February 2026: "Almost universally adored and yet rarely bought because good chablis, these days, is such a luxury. Billaud is a very fine producer who left Billaud-Simon to strike out on his own in 2009, and this chablis is a masterclass in understated elegance with subtle notes of lemon, salt and stone."
