  Mid yellow. Some initial restraint on the aroma, then almond paste, sliced Granny Smith apples, wet chalk, lemon and mineral.
  The palate shows vibrant mineral-edged acidity, trademark richness in the mid-palate and good length. some development, but surprisingly youthful at 11 years old, there is a lovely wet chalk softness and saline feel that shows green apple and grapefruit. Good quality Chablis.

  Hasn't improved with time. Quite high bitterness from the wood.

  Minerality is my word on drinking this vine. Has for sure evolved since last tasting. Still not a favorite of mine.

  Much softer than I anticipated and didn't have the characteristic sharpness of usual Chablis. Interesting drinking
  The wine looks blonde colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like melon. The body is light/medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has low acidity.

  Before pre-moxification of white burgundies became prevalent, this wine might have been thought to be on the warm side due to vintage I assume. Increasingly every time I go to the cellar for a Chablis from Fevre these last few years I assume the worst is going to happen. Tonight this wine is singing on all speakers. Beautiful yellow color that immediately announces "I am not oxidized!" I love the nose . It's powerful and stony with mineral notes. It is persistent and bright. The mid palate fruit seems typical. Lychee, not quite lime but high toned and finishing with round soft maybe a touch of butterscotch finish. It surpasses all expectations and I hope my grand and premier cru's will be as correct as this. Drink up!
