Excellent minerality, acidity and freshness; seabreeze aspect, seashell minerality with lemony tartness. Nice, but a bit out of place in a cottage in the middle of Dry Creek Zinfandel vines with fried chicken. What I really needed (and don't drink much of) was a big juicy zinfandel or creamy RR chard!

I enjoyed this more than a year ago. Again from magnum, this is now absolutely textbook Chablis. Riper than my earlier impression, and now more generous. Lovely stuff from a not especially highly rated vintage. Very good value.

Delicious. A little oxidation, sea spray and nice cut. Lovely.

Drinking very well now. Stony, sea breezy, salty, slightly oxidized on nose. Briny, minerally and a little stone fruit on palate. Delicious.

Absolutely classic Chablis. Pure oyster shell and a mere hit of pineapple. Truly dry, and taking the briskness to the limit.
