Tony Molester Does not like this wine:
January 5, 2019 - No formal note, from cellar since release.
Single piece cork, no seepage
Super anonymous chablis aromas and flavours, but quite youthful for 10 years of age.
Wasn’t worthy of premier cru and several basic chablis bottlings i would prefer over this. This sentiment was echoed by all my guests; failed to light any fires.
Drink or avoid, or hold to 2022 -

April 24, 2014 - Pale lemon. Fresh pure, lifted citrusy nose. Linear, minerally, fresh clean palate with crisp acid finish. All you could want in a young 1 er Chablis. Can confidently go a decade and build complexity assuming no pox. Lovely quintessential chablis

January 7, 2013 - Parfaitement à terme. Tout est bien fondu et a très bien accompagné une entrée de saumon et de truite fumé.
