Very good bottle. Took some time for the "funk" to blow away, but once it did it was an excellent bottle. Firm acidity balanced with enough fruit. Opened up a bit through the bottle. I am not certain I recommend decanting, but I would open it an hour or so before serving.

A bit big and oaky on the first day but mellowed over the next two to reveal more nice mineral notes but still held weight. Drank alongside the Fourchaume VV which was preferred on the first day due to crispness but the Vaupulans held much better and showed it class with more air.

Really non-descript. Just not much flavor coming through.

Note: I use the recommended scale , so 85 represents a very good wine.
Even better than the previous bottle two months ago.
No funk on this one.
Why can't all Chablis taste like this (or something close)? :-)

Just fine. Not better. Lacking in salinity and a hair broad for my taste.
Likely the vintage.
