From a half. For various reasons consumed over two days with a 3 day gap in the middle - vacuumed and refrigerated. On the first day, all that one might hope for from a village Chablis - refreshing, lively acidity, proper fruit (8/90) on return, rather watery and dilute (86). 88 probably a fair reflection.

Nose of tropical flowers and nutmeg. Thick in the mouth, with some more flowers and a rush of acid (which is OK) which overtakes the finish, leaving a citrus echo. All the components are good, but they clash with each other as if they were jockying for supremacy. Perhaps time will mellow this rambunctious wine, or perhaps it is meant for a summer meal of fish and herbs (as opposed to tonight's winter meal of soup by the fireplace)

3 years after my precious note and also from a half. Perhaps a less good bottle but this has aged surprisingly quickly. Over the top - drink up.

Lemon, grapefruit and nutmeg on the nose. Lemon, lemon zest and candied quince. High acidity, very refreshing. Acid dominates the finish.

Decent wine all around. Paired well with a seafood linguine.
