  Yellow. Briny, iodine aromas. Medium to lighter weight. Mixed yellow and green citrus, excellent salinity, outstanding acidity, and a long, crunchy, soil-laced finish. Youthful and full of energy.

  Opened 3 hours before serving. Healthy medium yellow. A whiff of reduction right out of the bottle, but that was gone by time we drank the wine. Ripe citrus and light iodine. Succulent fruit, moderate salinity and acidity, excellent length. Open and drinking very well now, but not as exciting and crisp as bottles were in early 2022 and 2020. Seems to be at best at a plateau of maturity that suggest early consumption from this point onward.

  Medium yellow. Algal and citrus scents. Medium weight with an excellent glycerine feel. Ripe fruit, not that much minerality, very good acidity, only moderate intensity. Not as good as a bottle earlier this year.

  A seriously good bottle of Chablis, at a perfect point in its evolution to my taste. Real heft and presence. A pleasure to drink and a great pairing with lemon risotto and sautéed shrimp.

  Concentrated from the bouquet to the finish; dry, stony, almonds, gentle wood followed by a quite stony/salty impression and a superbly balanced aftertaste, again the almonds and, although white, an impression of ripe tannins, The wine has a kind of introverted style (the opposite of the 2015 Olivier Leflaive Puligny Les Enseignères); still not completely developed, still restrained. What a beauty already now, but there is maybe more to come.
