Terrific Chablis. Clear palate showing citrus, saline, lemons and minerals. Transparent and pure, and while there is no oak, it is fuller and less angular than other young Chablis, yet still maintains good cut. This wine is generally excellent in every vintage, and this 2008 is no exception.

A perennial favorite, this '08 is seriously good. Chiseled palate, rainwater pure, lemony-rocky goodness, brisk acidity. Young and taut. I wanted to taste this with more contemplation, to get a better reading on this young wine, but alas the glasses were drained much too fast.

Ripe with lots of minerals. A bit oily. Austere. Showed best on day 2.
