April 30, 2020 - not sure what to do with this wine. Some classical Chablis like notes, chalky, stony, some lemon, also a rather long finish. I would wish for more body and pressure, very untypical for 2003.

July 30, 2012 - Chablis 2004 Shootout...Raveneau, Dauvissat and Fevre...Top Vineyards (L2O - Chicago IL): Tasted single blind alongside the Raveneau 2004 Forêt and Dauvissat 2004 Forest. This is an incredibly impressive 2003. Even though it showed slightly exotic fruit for Chablis, it still showed great balance, concentration and precision on a long finish.

June 11, 2012 - Not the style I like but a very good wine. Old school Chablis. Chalky on the nose with flowers. Chalk and minerality on the palate. Good wine but I like the more woody ones...
