Gorgeous lemon-gold color; hints of lemon zest, tangerine and oyster shells on the nose. Gripping and fiercely acidic on the attack, but fleshes out beautifully with air (don't drink this too cold) and reveals oily hazelnut notes and more gras than most '04 Chablis without sacrificing any of the perfumed, crushed Kimmeridgean limestone minerality that makes Chablis lovers swoon.

At Casa Tua in South Beach. Needs time. Hardly any nose. Initially, the palate shows salinity, and little else. With some air, the wine rounds out somewhat in the mouth, but doesn't really broaden on the palate. Good potential, but it's asleep right now.

Light yellow. Muted Chardonnay nose. Maybe a little dried out. Showing a lot more fruit today. Lemon and apple. Very dry finish.
