  May 7, 2022 - A stunning Grand Cru Chablis, this is fully mature but it was still decanted for a couple of hours, and I think was beneficial. The nose is buttery and honeyed and sensual, and not necessarily typically Chablis. However. the palate displays an incredible flintiness and perfect minerality with unwavering balance. The finish is perfection with clean oyster shell and gravel notes with hints of citrus, and pushes 60 seconds. 96+

  January 29, 2021 - The nose is on butter and chalk.
  
  On the palate, we have a honeyed attack, the sensation of a still very young wine. Then in the mid-palate, a small lack of body of the wine in my opinion, I expected a little more fat, but it is very quickly counterbalanced by a magnificent finish on beautiful very powerful bitters with predominantly grapefruit. The length is impressive.
  
  Very well.

  September 16, 2020 - PNP. Beautiful light golden color, no premox. Rich nose and palate to match. Baked apples, lemon peel, hazelnut, white smoke. As grand cru Chablis often is, this wine is not so 'Chablisiene', drinks like Beaune.

  June 13, 2020 - Last of 12, pnp, soft and fully travelled cork, perfect level, stunning if not quite the electrifying energy of last year's bottle, wonderful flint and salinity of Chablis at its very best, no rush but no reason to hold. VF+ (19).

  July 24, 2019 - Weird. This appeared very much premox'd for the first hour. We decanted it and left it alone until the end of the night. 4-5 hours later it was a totally different wine that had come back to life. Not as tense as it should be, but otherwise a very good showing.
