Burghound (88)(from Sur le Clos). A fruit, bright and citrusy nose offers good typicity in the form of sea breeze, algae and iodine. There is good density and reasonably good energy to the round and delicious flavors that terminate in an agreeably dry lemon-tinged finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth. This should drink well young but a year or two of keeping should help to add depth. |

Vinous (85-87)The 2021 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru has an attractive nose with white peach and light white flower aromas, nicely focused and delineated. The palate is vibrant and edgy, just a bit of CO2 in my sample, although it needs more ballast on the finish. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92)Pale lemon colour. Just a little bit smoky yet pleasingly marine as well. Very crunchy saline finish, 2022 is more classic for Vaillons than 2023. White fruit with the lightest of saline lemon rinses. Drink from 2026-2032. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89)Bright, pale, green-tinged yellow. Ripe aromas of mirabelle and nectarine, with an element of exotic spices. Fat, ripe and sweet, with an almost glyceral texture to the nectarine and pink grapefruit flavors. A fat, spicy wine with lowish acidity. This hail-affected parcel was picked at the beginning of the harvest owing to the more fragile grape skins, noted Bernard Billaud. Will make a fat and agreeable chardonnay, although with limited vineyard typicity. |

Burghound (91)(from 4 different parcels of 35+ year old vines). Here the wood is subtle though easily perceptible on the mildly exotic aromas of white and yellow peach, orange peel and moderate Chablis elements. On the palate the larger-bodied and more concentrated flavors are also generously proportioned while concluding in a balanced, dry and powerful finish. This could use more depth so a few years of keeping should again prove beneficial. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru replaces the Vaillons this year and Billaud's supplier could not deliver - only two barrels-worth. It has a taut and crisp bouquet with green apple and light wild peach aromas. The palate is firm with nice acidity; it's linear and correct with hints of white peach and pear towards the pretty finish. Very fine. |

Vinous (90-93)(tasted from a smaller stainless steel tank; this had previously been aging in barriques Very ripe aromas of peach and vanilla. Sweet, fat and fine-grained, with a distinctly silky texture to the apricot and almond flavors. Rather muscular and quite classically dry, and yet there's a suggestion of exotic ripeness throughout. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95)5 Star Wine. Mid lemon yellow. Immediately the nose has an extra lift over and above the Clos, the Preuses is powerful and spicy but also with a purity and elegant energy as well. There is a stunning intensity of fruit here with such a lift of energy. Fabulous dry extract and real length. Drink from 2029-2040. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94)Lemony colour. A touch of the wet wool reduction, more usual on a wine with greater age, but not in itself suggesting evolution. This wet wool aromatic is really just a sulphur compound, I believe. Then very spicy behind with a raft of white fruit energy and good acidity. Hangs on in well, plenty of latent concentration, just closed at the moment. Drink from 2028-2038. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Vinous (88)The 2019 Chablis Tête d'Or has a composed bouquet of yellow plum, crushed rock and light fumé scents that uncoil in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. The oak barrel underpins this Chablis but doesn't obscure the terroir expression, though I would still afford it 12–18 months in bottle. |

Vinous (88)The 2020 Chablis Tête d'Or derives only domaine fruit, and unlike the regular Chablis, it is aged a little longer with 25-30% barrels, mixed used and new with some 500-litre casks. It offers orchard fruit, touches of pressed white flowers on the nose and fine presence, but it's just missing a little personality. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, green apples with a touch of pear and a nice steely finish, albeit just missing a little length. |

Burghound (89)(from 2 parcels situated in the village of 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 wet stone. 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 worth considering. |

There is a wealth of great French wine outside the ‘Big 4’ (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and Rhone). The Languedoc Roussillon with it’s herby, robust Mediterranean reds, Provence with its pale, vinous roses, Loire with its flinty Sauvignons, crunchy Cabernet Francs, and endlessly fascinating Chenins, Jura with its old fashioned curiosities… the list goes on. Tradition and terroir are the veins running through them all, making French wines still the most emulated in the world.
