This is so delicious now, crisp and fresh, mineral and fantasy with food. It is so nice to see a basic Chablis bottle so nicely developed and no any trace of going tired, cant see why not keep for another 2-3y.

The nose is fairly delicate, a mix of warm minerals and soft flowers. The palate is, by comparison, explosive. Lemon rind, green apples, with a lively acidic finish. Great food wine!

I’m a big fan of Chablis, but this one was rather unbalanced. We enjoyed it, as it had nice aromas and a decent flavor profile, but the acid was nearly overwhelming. It was also missing that crisp, flinty flavor that we like so much about Chablis. If I had tasted it blind I would I would have guessed California. This was a Chardonnay that truly needed to be paired with food. I gave it an average rating anyway as it was still a decent wine, but just not what I expected when I opened the bottle.

Very light yellow with a slight green hue. Fairly tight nose with a little lemon and seashore. Medium+ body and acid, medium finish, and flavors of citrus, pineapple, pear, and apple, along with mineral riding out the finish. Worked well with sushi, but agree that this screams for raw oysters and raw bar.

I was quite impressed with this Chablis. It has good complexity and significantly more length than I had been anticipated for a non-1er/Grand Cru. A great buy from the Last Bottle marathon. Still drinking really well for a 'basic' 2011 (sealed under screwcap, which may have helped).

It has a little apricot on the nose, a little mineraly, and nice citric finish. Bottom line: a very nice wine for its price. When compared with most California chardonnays in the price range, this is a much better value.

Crisp, dry, clean fruity wine with bags of lively acidity, true varietal flavours and a superb, long finish.

Great example of a modern chablis with crisp acidity, lively fruit and a soft finish. I rate this very highly and it has improved for keeping.

中规中矩的Chablis，柠檬、橘皮的香气为主，持续力也很不错。在开场的柠檬虾派上，这款酒如鱼得水。

Very enjoyable at the moment, citrus and mineral, very clean, transparent and focused, medium bodied, text book Chablis.

Crisp, great minerality. I wish I'd had a dozen oysters on the half shell sitting around to pair.

Utsökt, ung och stram Chablis. Citrusfruktig i doft och smak med en lång eftersmak med lite grapebeska.
