pnp, still tasting great with sea elements and chalk/minerality, lemon; seems acid is dropping some and would suggest this won't get any better than it is now.

Outstanding wine with nice yellow color, beautiful bouquet of crushed stones and lemon. The wine has outstanding citrus flavors along with mouth coating acidity. The finish is long and delicious. Drinking beautifully now.

Engagement day picnic wine. PnP. Nice, concentrated bright citrus with chalk and salinity. Much improved over my last notes. This wine has really come into its own.

Similar to my note a couple of years ago but now more evolved. "Nice citrus, apple and mineral aromas. Mouth coating, rich, intense, great precision and cut…This wine should age well" No hurry on opening the next one.

Weekend with friends; 8/2/2014-8/3/2014 (At Home): Really good - starbright pale yellow with lots of sweet fruit - peaches and grapefruit notes supported and balanced by a beautiful line of acidity. The clarity of the wine shines through.

Opened a bit early but very promising. DIAM cork (not sure if that's a premox prophylactic). Bright lemon color, deep nose of sea shell, lemon, ripe apple. On the palate there's citrus but also a touch of honey. Its pleasantly rich in the mouth but with a good line of acidity to keep everything in check. Nothing particularly eye-opening but very well done.

I really enjoyed this wine. Brilliant crispness combined with a creamy quality made this really stand out. On the nose there is lime, lychee, and sea breeze. On the palate there is tartness upfront followed by a mellowness at the end.

0.375 L bottle in restaurant "Dollenberg", mid Oct 2013: pale yellow green color; roast aromas and flavors, molten butter, pear; full body; lush and smooth texture; however, with some grip.
Sommelier recommendation as accompagnion to a fish dish (loup de mer filet, cilantro-fennel fondue, nage au vin jaune). Served in big belly glasses. Liked it.

Already yellow in color. The nose is turning towards green mature apple, and although it still has freshness the mellow apple is taking over. On the palate it is much the same. The minerality that to me should be a main factor in the wine is hidden a bit behind this maturity, which is not too much yet, but I believe it will be soon. A good wine, that I will drink soon.

PnP. Nose of crisp citrus and the Sea. Loads of minerality on the palate, along with some nice creaminess. Chalky oyster shell. Very focused. Nice length.

drank along with the 2008 and Joe and Annie's house, this wine was much more approachable, nice acidity, lightly tart lemon, some nice minerals but less that the 2008 offered, lovely and easy to drink, very light bright and delicious, great QPR... Annie is now officially hooked on white burg... uh oh!

Freshly cut arum lilies, orange blossom, smoky mineral, mint and salt comprise the aroma of this fabulously pure Chablis. It is in focus, glistening with clarity and possesses a high squint inducability factor as it tugs at the crows feet around one's eyes. It is one of the most deliciously sharp young Chablis that I've had and perhaps the best Fevre MdT I've had.

Lovely wine…Nice citrus, apple and mineral aromas. Mouth coating, rich, intense, great precision and cut…This wine should age well…if it doesn't get the dreaded 'pox' 92 pts.

Light, slight green. Floral, citrus on the nose. Light and creamy texture, very fine - picked up a little weight over time. Very clean flavours, some lime and lemon, fine acidity with some oyster shell/salinity on the finish - medium length.

PnP. Drank over two days. Greenish-gold in the glass. Fresh, clean lime citrus and cream on the nose follows through nicely on the palate. Clean and crisp. Tart Granny Smith apple on the mid-palate and loads of citrus, along with the requisite Chablis minerality, and also some subdued but interesting Burgundian creaminess after the bottle opens up a little. Core is good, and length is nice, along with excellent trademark acidity. This is a nice wine, but I just couldn't help having the feeling that I've drunk this same wine from 100 different producers and several different terroirs. A nice, well-made wine, but at this price point, this wine is just not exciting or unique enough to gush about.

Spicy, understated nose. Creamy for an '07, or any MdT for that matter. With a few minutes of air, picks up not only Rose's lime character but ... wait for it ... Tequila. In another few minutes, the oyster shell thing materializes, but it retains the creamy middle and becomes notably rich in about 40 minutes.

After nearly poising our good friends with a defective bottle of Conundrum I felt I owed them something special. This was it. Still young but exceeded everyone's expectations. It's going to be hard to wait a couple of years before I open my other bottle.

This is a rocking good wine, liquid stone an sharp fruit, high acid and very green ting color. More classic than I would have expected. A combination between 2002 and 2004 with an extra kick..

I’m pretty sure that in 2007 Didier Seguier took possession of some kind of vinous ratchet whereby he was able to tightly wind strands of mineral and citrus into his 1er cru wines. This MdT is highly strung, dense and concentrated but with an airy feel. There’s plenty of iodine and lemon and some ripe fruit elements that show in the form of candied pear. It has superb cut to the finish and excellent length, should age particularly well.
