Gahh, they topped this with a synthetic cork, which is a crime for such a nice wine. Representative nose, with a very crisp and steely body. Overflowing with leesy lemony flavor, with a very long finish. But drink up, because this thing will be oxidized to death in 10 minutes... $30

Screw-cap top. Herbal notes on the nose. Green apple, very lemony, smoother than the Fontenay. Kinetic mouthfeel from the great acidity, crisp but not without some weight. Huge. $30

Kiss of oak on the nose. Slightly bigger feel. Softer, elegant. Very crisp and long. $40

Almost high-toned nose, more oak. Slightly bigger flavor all around. Fairly ripe, and with noticeable oak. Creamyish texture. Still very crisp, great acidity. Lots of lime. $40

Herbal dill nose. Medium- oak, smooth, elegant. More new-world than the others, but still definitely Chablis. $50
