Billaud-Simon – Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu 2014  – 94 points | $51 | 100 cases imported | White. Green plum and melon fruit pervade this intense, bracing white. Compact, leaning toward the austere side in the balance. Stays long on the steely, chalky finish. Best from 2018 through 2027.—B.S.

Billaud-Simon  – Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir 2014  – 94 points | $109 | 50 cases imported | White. Fleshy and racy, exuding lemon, green apple, green plum and mineral aromas and flavors. Sleek and saturated with flavor. This keeps coming at you on the finish, delivering citrus and stone elements. Best from 2019 through 2032.—B.S.

Billaud-Simon  – Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 2014 – 95 points | $116 | 20 cases imported | White. A ripe style, this white features hints of vanilla and lanolin detailing the core of peach, apple and mineral. Opulent, with good cut and a lingering aftertaste of ripe fruit and stone. Though balanced, this will benefit from a year or two of aging. Best from 2018 through 2029. From France.—B.S.
