2004 Dauvissat-Camus Chablis 1er Cru La Forest 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru
Quite a rich, slightly creamy nose. Quite floral and slightly honied. Good extract here. Really quite grippy on the minerally finish. A touch of spice too. Again, needs time. ***(*)

2005 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy 88 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru
Quite a delicate, floral, slightly mandarin scented nose. Some mineral and quite clean on the palate. Lacks grip and intensity though. A bit wishy washy. A nice drink but lacks some class. ***

Flight 3 (3 Notes)
2004 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
A flub of creamy oak on the nose - quite subdued but present. A slightly smokey attack. Quite mineral but also quite neutral through the mid-palate. Decent length, quite persistent. Good, though not great, weight and intensity. Bare ***(*). Will do well to turn out as well as the 99.

2004 Caves Duplessis Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Freshly mown grass and a touch of silage on the nose that morphs in to blue cheese. Proper intensity and grip on the palate. Linear. Not showing a lot of complexity. Could be ok but there's an element of doubt that I can't quite define. **(*1/2)

2005 Jean-Marc Brocard Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
A touch more honied on the nose. Passion fruit and a generally tropical sense of flavour. Reasonably styled texture/weight. Classy new world wannabe burgundy? Quite interesting and ***1/2 for what it is, but no typicity.

2005 Domaine Louis Michel Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre 92 Points

Slightly lactic, floral nose. Quite restrained and pretty. Decent weight. Good minerality and cut though - wouldn't pick this as 05. I like this. ****

2009 Domaine Louis Michel Chablis Grand Cru Grenouilles 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Pale. Very sappy, green, fresh nose. Herbal, almost grassy. Very pale. Intense, grippy and green. Promising but I can see this going the way of the 02 and lacking length. ***(1/2-*)

2002 Domaine Louis Michel Chablis Grand Cru Grenouilles 89 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Something not quite clean on the nose here - old something or other, hay maybe. Quite distinctive. More typical on palate. Mineral but also quite rounded. Very short though. Falls away completely. Shows promise but doesn't follow through - I feel a bit shortchanged. ***

1995 Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Nicely rounded and intense. Getting to maturity. Rounded quite intense. A saline, slightly iodine nose. Nicely intense. Good minerality. Lacks a bit of length on the finish, and some intensity, but that's nit picking. ***1/2

1999 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos 94 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Decanted an hour. Quite rounded nose with some mandarin, iodine and a degree of intensity. Really quite proper. By the time the reds have been poured this is starting to open up and show its stuff.proper intensity and length. Mineral, but a degree of complexity beyond this. Lovely. ****1/2

2005 Domaine William Fèvre Chablis Grand Cru Bougros Côte Bouguerots 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
Quite clean on the nose. Big and burly on the palate. There's some good chablis character in here but it needs a while to calm down and meld. Quite broad but good minerality. **(**)

1993 Simon Bize Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Les Marconnets 87 Points

More classic of the three reds. Redfruit, some grip and acidity. Hard to evaluate after an evening of chablis. Decent enough. ***

1999 Maison Bertrand Ambroise Nuits St. Georges 81 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges
Burnt rubber crossed with bovril. No. Doesn't improve on the palate. I rather hope this is faulty in some way. **

2008 Patrick Piuze Chablis 1er Cru Les Fourneaux 87 Points

A little mute on the nose. Chalky minerality. Nice extract, quite grippy across the attack. Reasonable length but lacks intensity and grip on the finish. ***

2001 Daniel-Etienne Defaix Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys Flawed
France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru
Quite a curious nose. Initially a bit cabbagey. A bit musty on the finish too. Decently mineral with reasonable focus. Good material underneath but the corkiness does get in the way. (***1/2)
