Pale gold. Nose is quite closed at first, palate ditto. Day two and it’s much improved, with salty white peach, sea spray and citrus. Less refined on the palate, even a touch coarse but held up by the taste of the ocean and the quality of the 2014 vintage. Not sure where this will go, but if opening now decant.

Lovely, classic Chablis. Took about an hour to open. Then, lovely floral nose. Medium body, light gold in color. Dry. Medium-low acidity. Round on the palate with mineral, citrus, and almond flavors. Went great with roasted chicken thighs and veggies. Wish we had bought more. Drink now-2024 maybe longer.

This wine was a major disappointment based on the professional reviews I was able to find. I picked it up at Costco and this has been the 2nd time recently that a highly rated (low to mid 90s) wine at about 20-25% off usual retail that I took a leap on was a major disappointment. We opened this about 3h prior to Christmas Eve dinner and the nose was good but other than that it was unpleasant, to be polite about it. The only word that came to mind was sour. It was also painfully unidimensional and thankfully brief on the back end. Furthermore, it didnt improve with time and air. Both my wife and daughter dropped "yuck" on it and the last half of the bottle went down the drain after about 3 hours open. Very aggravating for a mid-30 dollar bottle of white that was that highly scored.

Not very good, but I didn't get the sour that other reviews mentioned. Can't remember what I paid but wouldn't buy again.
