  A sublime bouquet of fresh mown grass and little flowers and a super fresh and pure taste, dry as you can expect from a chablis, but not skinny. The second day the bouquet had lost a part of its elegance. It can be a signal that the wine is now on its top and that you don't need to wait enjoying it.

  As before (see my previous notes), quite rich, elegant, dry (but not too) and a balanced finish.

  Surprisingly open with a floral, grassy bouquet, not flinty, however dry,
  A firm core and a very good backbone with ripe citrus fruit; aftertaste with gentle bitters. Enjoy this 'simple' Chablis now.

  This wine has a lot to offer, if you give it air; a grassy nose with fresh chardonnay, a lovely, smooth taste and from start to finish the ripe citrus from the backbone with a hint of flint.

  Let my explain, opened yesterday morning and in the evening, let's say 88 point, a nice wine. A day later, this evening, the wine was terrific good. From the pure chardonnay stony bouquet whit whiffs of lychee and pear to the aftertaste where the superb ripe citrus continues in the mouth and stays; everything firm and elegant (combined).
