March 12, 2023 - Coravin fun - Chablis + ringin (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Medium minus intensity aromas of lemon, tiny touch of marzipan, mineral, a touch flat, perhaps a smidge of cork taint…not super obvious though. Medium plus intensity acidity, lemon, citrus, textured grip, it feels a little stripped. Drink up

April 15, 2022 - From a 37.5cl.
Pronounced aromas of green apple, apple skin, lemon juice, attractive sour cream/cream cheese note, with waxy, straw, macadamia nut development. Bracing acidity which prolongs the compex, gorgeous finish that goes from steel to cream. Excellent wines. Lacks the concentration and depth of a Grand Cru, but this is great Chablis, showing its pedigree with a bit of age. Yum.
13% abv
Long temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts. Spontaneous malolactic conversion.
Matured for 12-16 months in stainless steel with minimal handling.
Long, cool stablisation. Fining if necessary, gentle filtration before bottling. -

May 3, 2021 - Pale yellow gold hue. Nose of stony white flowers, chalk, apple core, citrus. Layers of steely grapefruit, granny apple, and flint on the palate. Bracing acidity. Long finish of citrus and apple cut with stone. Excellent combination of austerity and refreshment.

March 25, 2021 - Has some oomph on the palate and is very nice to drink. Herbs, lemon, peach, yellow apple brioche and thyme. A crushed stone dust nose translate to the palate giving a nice texture to this wine.
