Ultra clean, orchard fruit, some stone fruit. Very fresh and lively with a little singed sugar. Medium weight, actually quite instructive for a 1ere of this age. Good bottles have many years of life ahead

Very nice, not tired. A bit lighter on the tongue and more accessible than in the past, for those who like their 1er Chablis in this phase of development (I do). Best for drinking in small sips, for best flavor and aromatics.

Extremely fresh and slightly plump with Chardonnay fruit, but deliciously sour and intense. The relative ripeness at this age bespeaking the excellent exposure and lay of the MdT vineyard. An excellent bottle of 10-year-old 1er Cru Chablis with, I estimate, a decent stretch of lifespan still ahead. Good vineyard, good vigneron, good year, good wine.
Finished the last of it a few days later: still excellent. One of the best Chablis I've opened in a long time, along with 2002 Moreau Clos.

Much, much better showing than my last bottle from 9 months ago. This is pure and energetic Chablis with interesting orange blossom note on the nose and good cutting minerality on the palate.

Love it. Cuts like a knife..but balnced with acid and fruit and the minerality is wonderful. Can't wait to enjoy with my scallops
