  Pretty reductive and primary, there’s quality but needs time.

  Opened two bottles. The first was totally maderized and undrinkable, despite a seemingly sound cork. The second one is drinkable but on the edge, with nice lemony flavors but that unmistakable hint of sherry. Drink up ASAP.

  Little bit sweeter in style than I'm used to in Chablis, but was lovely and fresh. nice balance, good acidity and long on the finish.
  made for a lovely aperitif.

  Dinner with Aldo Vacca: A bouquet of sea breeze and oyster shell, with minerality and a clear saline character, has this as definitely Chablis. Also aromas of yellow orchard fruit and citrus. On palate, this was clearly a quality Chablis, better than the very good 2007 William Fèvre Bougros we had on Friday night. Grand Cru fruit density and gravitas. It had flavours of pears and lemons, with sea shells, chalk and again that strong saline quality. Also, we detected a bit of a green edge to the palate (but not a fault). Highly recommended. Drinking well now or could be held for some years.

  Mature, with some hints of oxidation but nothing extreme. Pale yellow, lively citrus nose with hints of hazelnuts, vanilla. Tart, good fruit, long finish.
