Rather evolved colour for a barely five year old premier cru. Aromas are quite evolved as well, giving some ripe citrus, lime, pear and minerals (chalk). Medium to full bodied, very nice grip with acidity that is almost reminiscent of tannins. Lots and lots of ripe citrus, green apples and some lime in the mouth, bracing acidity, and a very fresh aftertaste that sits for a long time. The mouth was much fresher and younger than the colour and nose promised, a pleasant surprise. Will get better over the next 2 years, and will keep for many more. Good wine, but not exactly impressive for a Montee de Tonnerre

Really enjoyed this, lemons, green apple skin, some crushed rock and maritime influences medium plus acidity and lots more lemon rind on the palate, medium length finish which is slightly bitter

Excellent young chablis. All seashells and mineral on the finish, with a nose of lemon zest, oysters, and a touch of peach. Good weight, decently fleshy by chablis standards. Lemon curd midpalate balancing the wine beautifully.
Very excited to see where this goes. Paid $48, good value given the quality.

Sitrus, mineraler, kritt, nøtter, noe tørket frukt, honning, salt. Noe utvikling, lang, balansert og frisk, men litt kaotisk. 90

Still holding up well. Quite fresh with a hint of limey citrus. Not very complex, but certainly enjoyable.

Mature fruit, lacks complexity and grip.

Quite taut and focused. Green apples and a refreshing slightly saline finish.

More ripe than the other wines in the range with a touch of tropical fruit. Needs some time.

Nice and crisp. Easy to drink. Great perfume character. Enjoyable even though its bio. ;)
