Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow" #028 Chablis (by DJ): The bouquet is still a bit locked and not very expressive, but it shows green apple. On the palate a full bodied and concentrated wine with minerals, yellow fruits, green apples, tight and crisp acidity and a good length. Give it some airtime or decant it an hour or so in advance.

Light colour. Nose is apples and fennel seed. Good concentration and sufficient acid. Flavours are orchard fruit. Shortish finish for a GC. Near its peak

Pale yellow. Ripe fruit and flowers and mineral. Only a hint of oak, or is it lees? A very good example.
