Golden delicious apple, waxy, elegant oxidization, and salty mineral.
Medium acid with a finish dominated by the aforementioned apple note.
A textbook example of how great Ganevat’s wines can be. At 12.7%, there’s much riper apple notes and more texture than a lot of Jura Chardonnay. Achieves this while maintaining finesse, savory notes and the complexity that comes with long elevage.

Oyster shell and sea spray. That’s it. The platonic ideal of Chablis.
Medium plus acid with a touch of bitterness. Long finish on the aforementioned savory notes.
This clearly needs more time (and has the structure to do so) to reach its potential, but is delicious now. This is what I’m looking for in Chablis. Salt and acid.

***Review below is from the 2022 vintage***
Intense watermelon and strawberry. What a nose!
Medium plus acid with a touch of tannin. Impressive fruit concentration on the finish.
A friend brought this over with zero expectations and this was WOTN. The joy of a rose with the concentration of a serious red. Top-tier QPR.
