Community Tasting Note

• oldwines Likes this wine: 95 points

  February 9, 2024 - Pre-Super Bowl Gentlemen's Dinner (New Jersey, USA): In my cellar since release. Double decanted a hour before tasting and served at cellar temperature. This was really a wonderfully precise and terroir driven wine. Crisp with chalky minerals, lemon citrus and tart apples. Great purity and balance. No noticeable oak. Long finish. This was wonderful with the Hamachi course! In many ways this was a perfect example of what Chablis is all about with nothing added. This was pretty consistently one of the top wines of the night. For me in the second tier close to the top with the 2008 Clos des Goisses. Perhaps the best wine-food pairing of the evening among many stellar selections! If there is such a thing in Burgundy any more this is an excellent QPR.
