A faint nose leads to a palate that shows soft, round fruit like melon and pear, along with a just a touch of sherry-like oxidation. Is this premoxed already? There isn't much acidity and none of the cut that I like in good Chablis. A bottle of '07 Lavantureux recently tasted more like Sancerre, and this '06 Lavantureux is soft and dull and lacking in acidity and cut. I'm a big fan of Kermit Lynch, but these Lavantureux leave me disappointed.

a fashionable display of chardonnay, with lemon zest and melon aromas, good body supporting honey, mineral, peach, apple, and smoke, with a stony, and lengthy finish, works well with shrimp, balanced, refreshing and classy

Nice fruity and gripy chardonnay. However, it lacks the minerality traditional of chablis. Enjoyable and ready to drink
