  Tasted immediately after opening. Light golden colour. Lovely nose; yellow apples, a whiff of tropical fruit, nice minerality and subtle oak. Rich and creamy on the palate. Great acidic structure and considerable length. I liked this wine a lot although the style took me a bit by surprise. This was not the slender and steely Chablis I’m used to, but rather something more reminiscent of a central Burgundian (albeit not as smoky and buttery). The recommended drinking window suggests that present day consumption is too early. Considering how much I enjoyed this wine today it will be very interesting to see how my last bottle develops during the course of the next few years.

  Surprisingly oaky, but excellent concentration and grip. Very youthful, should be superb in a decade.
