  This is all beach and tidepool on the nose, touch of sulfur, but overall nicely enticing; classic, classic palate, taut, even lean fruit, but complemented by strong chalky, rocky, iodine minerality, hint of late saline, but the razor sharp minerality and acidity dominate the lasting finish. A rock head wine, one this taster finds delicious.

  Pale lemon.
  
  Medium plus intensity on the nose with lemon, apple, pear, apple pie, toast, flint and wet stone.
  
  Pronounced and dry on the palate with some cream coming through. Noticeable grip adds some structure. High acidity, medium body, medium alcohol, long finish.
  
  Delicious.

  Perhaps a little less linear and integrated than would be optimal but still a great expression of chardonnay.

  Pnp. This starts quite promising as the wine is initially rather tight and tense with good acidity and freshness, and both chalk and some sulphur creating a fairly typical Chablis flavor profile. Only the grassy notes are a bit irritating.
  With more air however, the wine loosens up considerably and the various flavors seem to fade. So you are left with a pretty and fresh Chablis that however lacks a bit of concentration and also tension. The mediocre 2016 Chablis vintage shows after all.
  Overall good but not great for my favorite Chablis site.
