Toast and mineral with pear on a nose that is complex but a little reserved at this point; good weight and balance on the palate, perhaps just lacking in complexity. The 2015 Chablis vintage seems highly respected in some quarters. For me, the jury is still out. So far, 2015 does not stand comparison with 2014, in terms of depth and structure.
So, am I drinking this wine too early? Je ne sais pas. The aftertaste has just a wiff of farmyard - nothing unpleasant, but a sign to me that the longevity of the wine may be problematic. But, of course, the only way of knowing would be to open another bottle next.
Anyway, Happy New Year, and let us hope that 2022 will be better than 2021.
