  Excellent++/Outstanding-
  I'll just lazily ditto DEVRAJ's recent TN and say this might have been the best bottle of the half dozen I'd purchased. Drank beautifully over two nights.
  
  Happy I went long on this six years ago at $30. Sad that this is the last bottle and that 1er Cru Chablis prices are up, up, up.

  Light yellow in color. Classic aromas of maritime scents, sea-shell broth, lemongrass, florals, citrus oils, stone fruits and limestone/chalk. Well defined palate that shows good sap to the medium weight stone fruits, savory sea shell reduction, medium+ acidity, minerals and a long perfumed finish. This continues to impress, perhaps a small nit is that it is perhaps a bit more generous and ripe on the palate, but nevertheless a fabulous value.

  Nice but has lost the freshness that made it a bit more enjoyable a few years ago.

  Pale yellow in color. Aromas of just underripe white peach, citrus oils, sea shells and wet stone. Medium bodied and savory palate shows good depth to the yellow citrus and crustacean broth, sea spray, very good acidity and a long saline finish.
