A nice wine and true to Chablis but lacking a touch of depth. Ran this through an aerating decanter and let warm up from fridge temp, but still took a couple hours to start to emerge - classic last sip the best as end of bottle neared room temp. Didn't have enough to pair well with Dungeness crab.

This benefited from air and warming up from fridge temp. In pinot glasses and swirling we got a nice nose following some depth of flavor. Absolutely correct and solid price performer.

Good! I was a little let down by the 2019 but surprisingly the 2018 shows more zip. Great nose of citrus, white peach and nice sea breeze that gets more prominent the longer it stays in the glass. Good balance, everything is where it should be: good concentration on the forefront followed by nice acidity/minerality and then a touch of sweet fruit with salinity on the finish. For a village, this shows good complexity. Surprised that 2018 shows fresher than 2019. Not sure I would keep this for a long time considering everything is where it should be for my taste. Yum.

Smooth, crisp, refreshing and delicious. I will be buying more Chablis as it felt less manipulated and truer to the grape.

A private lunch (Restaurant Le Petit George, Amsterdam, NL): Ripe lemon and a hint of peach, lovely balance and freshness, nice weight, salty minerality, good length. All present and correct, good value.
