This pours light straw in the glass with a faint flecks of green. The nose is lifted and complex from the first pour though it does open up and round out with further air. The nose is of vanilla custard, lemon juice, mint, honeydew melon, a touch of struck flint, cold cream, and ripe kiwi. Just fabulous stuff. The palate is wonderful with a rich custardy entry but a finish that is very precise with medium plus acid and a lengthy finish replaying much of the nose. Love this.

Was a bit skeptical given the not very favorable vintage and all the mediocre 2016 Chablis I have had so far, but in the end bought a case recently at a nice price. First bottle. Pnp. Pale yellow. Great showing as this displays already a beautiful balance, good freshness and minerality, a finely textured palate, a touch of sweetness and harmonious finish. Its all already nicely integrated but will for sure drink well for quite a while. Highly recommended.

{1 of 3, PopNPour, consumed over 3 hours. Diam cork.} Pale yellow. Beautiful citrus and acacia flower nose and flavors, good size and weight, superb length, lots of stoniness, still a bit tight. Tasted next morning and the complexity had upped a notch, so scored 93 not 92. Tastes as good or better at room temperature as at chilled temperature. Will give my other bottles a few more years, no rush to consume. Lovely, lovely wine.
Sitrus, fersken, smør og mineraler i nesa. Sitrus, grønne epler, fersken med en kjøttfull frukt i munnen. Nydelig syre/sødme balanse gjennom hele munnen. Veldig god til pannestekt laks og Sandefjordsaus. Må prøves til hvis fisk også, gjerne kveite.

Clairement dans une classe à part. Excellent avec une densité de saveur incroyable et une texture bien enveloppante. Bien équilibré du début à la fin, avec des amers et une acidité super bien intégrées. Super !

Ouvert 3h d'avance et carafé pendant 30 minutes. Évidemment c'est encore très jeune, mais je voulais accompagner un bon Risotto au homard. Nez assez discret sur les poires et pommes vertes avec une certaine touche minéral. En bouche l'attaque est assez vive, mais avec une belle substance et beaucoup d'énergie. La finale est tout de même assez longue en bouche. Clairement le vin mérite plusieurs années en cave afin de développer plus de complexité, mais j'ai réussi à l'apprécier durant la soirée malgré sa jeunesse. Très bien!

Light yellow/gold. Lemon and stoney, minerally, mouth-watering umami with a bit of oak on the nose. Medium body, nice tension between the zesty fruit and acidity, flavors follow the nose. Medium finish. An excellent young Meursault but too young for any complexity. Finished with a Diam cork so maybe it will get there with little risk of premox, but I’m no longer gambling on aged white Burgs.

Stone fruits, medium body, minerally acidity, nice balance, ripe fruit and a bit richer than I expected for a young Meursault, medium finish, excellent.

Much preferred this to the Genevrieres, a lot more stony with gripping minerality, flinty, tight and you feel you are on the edge of your seat the tension is killing you. There is stone fruit on the palate also and layers of it as well. Peach, nectarine, ripe and warm 93-94

Beat your 2018 WOTY Dinner: Blind. Soap, mint, light oak and peach with pears. Good rich fruit profile, young and stylish. Good cut through with mineral acidity tempering the fruit sweetness. Lovely drinking now and certainly into the future.

Wow minerality. Intense airy nose of mixed white fruit, lemon/lime and floral elements. A bit disparate on the palate with lots of Chablis stones and acid. I don't want to say unbalanced but the acid is currently intense. Very good length but young and tight.
Unsolicited- The new Bouchard labels are a bit weak IMHO..
