Looks young in the glass. Drinks young but doesn't have the intensity that is off-putting for me with most Chablis. The flavors had room to show and they were a good mix of citrus and honey. The length was amazing.
I guessed late 90s. No one guessed early 90s or 90. Impressive bottle

Drank alongside the '85 Blanchot. Drinking very well with a nose I could sniff all day. So rich on the palate but with so much honeyed minerals and acid that all was in harmony.

EL Birthday Dinner (The Garden Table at Le Pavillon): Served blind next to the 83 Leflaive BM and the 82 Coche Dury Meursault. Obviously Chablis. Obviously Raveneau. Many questions on age.

Smoke and lemon aromatics. Placid, bitter palate with medium length.

Quite nice -- acid still vibrant, touch of oak is present but not distracting. Wish we decanted it ahead of time. Lots of stuffing and life left here.

Still remarkably fresh. Terrific start to a tasting dinner.
