Still drinkable but not particularly enjoyable anymore. Golden yellow, bordering on amber. Gorgonzola and dried fruit (apples, dates) on the nose. Still good acidity but not much else on the palate. Medium finish.

Most of the Chablis I have had has been opened in the first four years after harvest. I couldn't decide if this bottle at eight years was progressing normally or aging too rapidly. It was an old gold color in the glass and not a steely, flinty or crisp white wine. OTOH, it didn't seem maderized or sherry-like. It had apple notes that I really liked. I would be interested in others' impressions of whether this is the way the wine should be aging.

Golden yellow, damp leaves and chestnuts on the nose. Dried pear. Medium finish. Nice acidity. Drinking very well right now.

Nose of bread and butter; hint of marmalade on the palate. Crisp acidity, green apples. Still drinking very well.

Veldig ok kommunechablis til denne prisen. Pen mineralitet, bra lengde - rund stil - men dominerende syre (2007-syndrom).
