    March 21, 2023 - Another orphan half- bottle( 375 ml).
    Another cellar find!
    On nose: subtle candle wax, minerals and sea salt .
    On palate: above flavour notes follow through, with yellow apple skin, white florals, honeydew rind, with faint notes of flint, but on a medium body, coupled with a balance of present acidity.....this 1er cru, drinking well at 7 years old , displays a fine complexity, worthy of further aging ( but in 750 ml bottles).

    June 20, 2019 - By the glass. More watery than Vaillons with notes of yellow plums and calcareous minerals. Also a marine touch. Harmonious and with length although that aqueous texture.

    Por copas. Más acuoso que Vaillons con notas de ciruelas amarillas y minerales calcáreos. También un toque marino. Armonioso y con longitud aunque de textura acuosa.

    March 23, 2018 - 2016 Louis Michel AC and Premier Cru Chablis (Dig Wines, San Francisco): Light green-this looks like young Chablis! Quite floral. Delicate, bright citrus, substantial acidity. Saline and long. This could develop into another excellent wine with a few years.
