    May 18, 2021 - Ok...I was just thinking about if there is another Chablis producer that resembles my fav Raveneau...that amazingly waxy sensual texture, intense vibrant citrus cut, and classic Chablis sea air salinity...when I first took a sip of this 16 Duplessis MdT it totally reminded me of Raveneau! Only this wine has done that, as the other Duplessis I've had, have been built for the long haul, and structured like a fortress! A nice cellar temp brings out that wonderful waxiness...soft and so inviting...plush and ripe fruit ala vintage...creamed with a smidgen vanilla spiced oak...lemon/lime citrus adds a vein of energy...crushed oyster shell galore give it salt...pretty florals of white flower, lime blossom, and some spearmint...in such balance and effortless...TOTAL Chablis! Amazing recovery from the 15, which either had a faulty cork issue, or I just had bad luck with a few bottles. LOVE this 16!
