Domaine Billaud Simon

In France—Frankreich—in Chablis, Domaine Billaud Simon carries a lineage that reaches back to 1815—born in the wake of the Napoleonic era and still defined by discipline. Chardonnay is the centre of gravity, rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone where fossils and clay sharpen the sense of place.

Vineyards are handled plot by plot: selective picking, precise pressing, and fermentations aimed at clarity. Ageing is split between stainless steel for transparency and oak for architecture, with time on fine lees adding depth without blurring the lines.

Since the 2014 acquisition by the Faiveley family, the domaine has kept its independent voice: terroir-led, controlled, never showy. It’s a Chablis story that sells through credibility—because every choice, from vineyard work to élevage, is made to let the site speak first.
