Grapefruit, surprisingly mango, pink dragonfruit. and cucumber. Pear. High but not piercing acidity on the palate. It even appears a little sweet. There is lemon sherbet, grapefruit, distant butter. A touch of bitterness on the finish. To me, it seemed quite unusual for Chablis, but not bad at all. 8-/18

Pretty Chablis actually, recognisably so. I had thought that the wines from 2018 vintage did not really scream of their terroir having fallen into the tropical sphere, but on this one glass I was pretty impressed and didn't feel that to be the case. OK so it isn't the final word in steel, slate and chalk, but it was a lot better than I was expecting it to be and I'd happily drink this if I was desperate for Chablis. This was at a restaurant, but on this showing I might pull some of my own 2018s and see how they are doing.

Brisk and tart, it was a nice pairing with olive oil and pasta. I would purchase and drink it again.

Drink as a Chablis reference, but I would highly recommend the other Chablisienne wines in stead.
