  Bottle purchased at the winery two years ago. Crisp, citrus nose, medium body with good minerality, and fine finish. Very pleasant wine. I wish I carried home more.

  Day 1 this came across as tasty, but very much lacking in overall volume and came across as a tad thin. Day two was much improved, and food pairing no doubt assisted (fresh crab and shrimp on mixed greens a taziki dressing) - not an 'oceanic' type chablis, but rich and good mineral thrust. At $33 certainly fair value, but I would probably look at different option in this price range (Vocoret, Gilbert Picq etc).

  Golden straw. Bright, mineral, earthy and with a hint of richness. Lovely acidity. 375.

  On a level with the 2015: ".. just gorgeous, smooth, long, balanced and riding a lovely acidic spine. The more you drank, the more you liked it." Went beautifully with lobster. Wish this were easier to come by!
