A Flight of Chablis: The 2007 Jean-Paul & Benoit Droin Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots is light pale straw in colour with a nose of slight green apples. A very pastel, soft and pleasant nose. Quite thin upon entry before gaining a bit of density from the mid palate, resulting in a rather round wine. Pronounced green apples on the rather fresh palate. Medium (-) finish, pretty pleasant overall. Makes a brilliant Premier Cru but have it doubts for a "Grand Cru star".

Lots of grapefruit here. Not as rich as the Valmur, more approachable. Somewhat saline. Will probably improve over the next couple of years.

Very light on the nose. Very green taste, apple etc. High acidity, should spend a few more years in the cellar. A pleasent experience nonetheless
