  (BUTTEAUX Louis Michel Chablis) 1er Dear Friends, Last year at the en-premier tastings of Bordeaux, the most exciting wine to be traded was not Bordeaux - it was everything else...at discount prices. I was able to shake things up with many memorable deals that were tough for me to top (and that was during a good economy). This year, I would expect even more eye-opening offers. Here is a terrific start - two 2007 1er Chablis from Louis Michel at bizarre prices. These appear to be some of the lowest tariffs in years for a classic growing season so take note. I don't have access to any reviews but I'm sure they are excellent for the prices below (if I remember, the Butteaux was 89-91 or 89-92 from Burghound - I don't remember the Vaillons but the winery thinks it's as good or better). I'm off to taste 2008 Left Bank wines tomorrow and will report back (a prominent Left Bank vintner I talked with today is very enthusiastic about the vintage and claims it is one of the better years in the last decade. When I asked him to compare a vintage he said "it's a combination of 2001 and 2004" which (on the surface) does not appear to be exciting at all. I'll reserve judgment and report back. 2007 Louis Michel Chablis "Butteaux" 1er 2007 Louis Michel Chablis "Vaillons" 1er Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Burg6840 Burg6850
