Tone’s 75th Birthday Bash; done blind: palish white straw; such a classic aroma I immediately said “Chablis, and a damn good one!” Crushed stone, green apple, very flinty; excellent body, crispness of acidity. Should age brilliantly.

A riper Les Clos, for sure but everyone remarked on how Chablis the nose was after initial sniffing. Petrichor, wet stone aromas of yeast, pale orchard fruits and fresh lemon citrus with subtle inner mouth perfume, elegant florality on the supple midpalate. Pliant and rounded without undue weight. Comes across as very primary and attractive but needs more bottle age to reveal more authoritative flavors. More creamy than in other vintages, for sure.

Layered and on the rich side of concentration but lazer focused and long. Wish I had more. Just stellar performance.

Solid Chablis, good structure and minerally. Nose seems a bit closed. Next day didn't budge too much either.
<edit: ignorant comment about diam10 - diam10 is legit, doesn't indicate maximal aging duration>
For me personally, I'd prefer Rav Chablis, one more data point for me that producer trumps everything.
