  Clean, saline, stones. Citrus and some stone fruit (apricot?) on the nose. Ample fruit, but the drive in this wine is compelling. High-toned Chablis finish. Very very good.

  nose of seashell and iodine. smells like chablis.
  mouth of underripe peach with a touch of bitterness and loads of minerality. seashell finish. somewhat skimpy on the fruit which is fine with me. I think this cuvee does a nice job remaining true to form.

  Un bon chablis sur les coquillages avec encore de lelevage. N’a pas une tres grande profondeur, la prochaine dans 2-3 ans.

  Bleak and clear. Very chalky nose with tones of citrus and green apples. Medium bodied attack with fine tones of green apples and lime. Good fruit on the mid palate, lots of chalky notes, giving a dry , almost tannic finish. Almost austere in style, and will probably not evolve much. Drink now, preferably with some good shellfish.

  Chablis combineert prachtig met oesters en ander zeefruit. Maar is ook een ideale tafelgenoot voor gevogelte of kalfsvlees.
