  Spring 06 TAC Vendor Sale (Tokyo American Club): Fairly ripe apple/lemon nose with enough mineral and cool brightness to be interesting. On the palate, seems a little less ripe (to the good) and very typical but not remarkable. Goes down easy and, without seeing the pricetag, I’d like to drink more. But this lacks the concentration and finish to make me want to pay the price and take home a case. Actually, nicely typical of Fourchaume with the riper and rounder nose, plus enough crispness and minerality to say Chablis. It just lacks the concentration of a 1er cru – or even a top notch Chablis AC – and that shouldn’t be an issue in this vintage. ($23.70)
