This chablis is another excellent Costco purchase. Their buyers really know how to find value, even with popular appellations. This wine has a yellow straw color and a nose of lemon and roses. It tastes of citrus, green apple, honey, and chalky minerality. This wine is a little heavier than many chablis, and has a creamy mouth feel. It also has crispy acidity with a moderate finish and paired well with my dinner of tilapia Francaise and pasta. Excellent QPR.

Decent wine but more fruit than a typical Chablis; enjoyed the bottle with clam sauce and oysters; maybe the age has lessened the acid; enjoyed the bottle.

More pear than apple round rich and balanced. Seemed better than previous bottles, may have needed the time to mature.
