  Maybe it's just that it had 4-5 years more cellar age (in a cooler at 50 deg), but I was more impressed than the earlier reviewers. A fair amount of Chablis minerality combined with medium fruit that grew and lasted on the palate. Well worth the price with turmeric cod sauteed in lemon and olive oil, finished in the oven.

  Drank this tonight at The Empire Place, Bangkok, with my spouse, brother and mother.
  
  A wine that was rather straightforward without complexity and dimensions, which was rather surprising. Had expected something more flavourful with texture and depth. Some earthy and minerals in the finish. Some unripe pineapples and green notes on the nose and palate upon entry as well.

  J'aime bien les Chardonnay bien gras qui s'accordent si bien avec un bon saumon. Mais ici, on est dans quelque chose de beaucoup plus vif, plus frais. Une agréable sensation d'agrume vient enrober notre bouche laissant un vent de fraicheur sur son passage. Cet assemblage de premiers crus est à la fois minéral et mielleux. Une douceur de tous les jours dans un équilibre judicieux.
