Domaine Billaud-Simon is a leading wine producer located in Chablis. The domaine has been growing Chardonnay in the region since 1815, producing some of the best examples of Chablis Grand Cru and Premier Cru. Billaud-Simon owns some 17 hectares of vineyard land on Chablis' unique Kimmeridgian soil. This famously ancient soil is composed of marine sediment, algae, and shells, named after a village and bay in Dorset on England's Jurassic Coast.
The origins of the name are not clear. It is probably derived from ‘la vallée de tous les désirs’ meaning ‘the valley of all desires’, eagerly awaited by wine lovers and winemakers each year. Whatever the case, it is certainly a very beautiful name for a wine climat.
