Mid gold with flashes of green. Consistent with previous note of 4 months ago. Mineral nose, GC weight with a slightly creamy texture, crisp fruit, lemon/lime-and decent minerality. Lacks a little complexity but decent length. Positive finish. Very good. ***1/2

Greeny yellow. Full nose, slightly spicy, hint of vanilla, but dominant core of mineral. Full and intense on the atack, Grand Cru weight, but lacking a little in intensity of flavour. Mineral, some lime fruit, creamy feel. Decent length. Very nice and ready now. ***1/2 possibly ****. Excellent vfm too at just over a tenner shortly after release.

Pale to mid yellow with green tinges. Still very mineral and quite lean, hints of citrus. Bright, minerally and refreshing attack, reasonable weight and nice texture. Some hints of more rounded and honeyed fruit but still very minerally and quite linear. Surprisingly unevolved with plenty of life yet. Might leave it a year or two before trying the next bottle. Good, but not the mid-palate weight or intensity for excellent.

Very tired, but alive and drinkable. Needs more acidity and minerality to offset the aged fruit profile.

This wine has faded badly. Some of the steel and character that you expect of a top chablis, but fruit is mostly gone.
