  This my last bottle of four bought in december. Two of those were oxidized, but two were delicious, with this last one probably showing the best. Golden colour, classic Chablis nose of stones, minerals, aromatic herbs, and milk, fresh palate with minerals, apple fruit, herbs and a slight lactic quality. Does not have the weight of a grand cru, but certainly very good 1er cru-like quality and I'm amazed it survived so long.

  It was a nice surprise finding this for only 9,5 in a small local shop. Golden colour. Very expressive slightly lactic nose with honey, ripe yellow fruit, marsepan and a hint of minerals. Suprisingly full bodied for an "ordinary" Chablis. This is certainly Premier cru quality fruit. At peak drinking now, with ripe yellow fruit and sweet honey, balancing acidity and mineral undertones. Great balance, delicious and the best Chablis qpr I've ever tasted.
