Small glass, brief note. Mature apple with a trace of butterscotch. Good weight and richness, the mineral textures seem mostly faded, so less classically Chablis, but still nicely charming.

Thanks to CHBeaumont for the spot-on review below. Tried first at cold cellar temp and it was a bit tired and flabby. After short stint of freezer chilling & some air it smelled/tasted a lot fresher. Open buttery nose, beautiful palate with touch of honey'd lime. +1 hour really put on depth and went from citrus to nuttiness. Agree this is a great time to pop the corks on this. A great wine to celebrate impeachment #2 with.

Pale buttercup; classic bouquet, subtle, shows attractive bottle age; superb palate, vague tropical hint, sea-shells. Lingering finish. This is best served on cold side. After 90 minutes this went into decline. Drink up.

Pale yellow. Intensely aromatic nose of lemon, saline, slate and talcum. Remarkably vibrant and powerful for a wine this age. Endless finish.
