July 7, 2013 - While I think that Gilman's review is a bit too favorable, this was a good Bourgogne blanc that shows good clear fruit with energy and verve, yet showing a bit too much oak currently in the vanilla and raw new wood on the palate. I think the wood will absorb and then this will be very good. I've been meaning to try this as a possible substitute for the Dauvissat cru Chablis that we've been opening. Found this wine, of all places, at a package store in Georgetown.

The minerality is a little earthier, flintier though than oyster shell. Its been a while since I've opened one of the Les Champlain though so I'll have to open one soon.
