PnP. Light greenish gold. Citrus, lemon/lime, sea air on the nose. Really lovely spherical presentation on the palate; elegant but intense. This is really classic. I miss a bit of the exotic character this has in some vintages but that may develop with time. Drinking well but not rush.

Killer GC Chablis, intense green apple, jolly rancher, asian pear, chalk, intense on the palate and long juicy persistent finish. Excellent. DD Blind 1982-2005 Bordeaux 1st Growth dinner at BOA steakhouse starter wines.

I love Chablis. I am not sure it's a bargain any more but the wines are just so elegant. And this one is no exception.
Visual: color is a pale lemon, not very intense Nose: moderate aromaticity, primary fruit of citrus, lemongrass, honeysuckle; no discernable secondary flavors Palate: dry, high acid, no tannin, med-high alcohol, matches nose, emphasis on a melon note
Overall: very good to outstanding Balance - outstanding Flavor complexity - very good Finish - really long Flavor intensity - strong
This is a really excellent wine and I am glad I have a lot of it

Consistent with my last tasting note from Oct 2022. Good but not great Chablis. 92

Still on the young side. Nice to see a 2016 wine perform well. Elegant, soft acidity, a hint of tropical fruit, mineral. I still see some upside here
