    A Chablis 1er Cru Full of Energy

    "A blend from plots in Montée de Tonnerre, Chapelot and Pied d’Aloup, the latter planted in 1944. Glowing lemon yellow. A high quality nose with the spicy liquorice style of ripeness rather than tropical fruit. All in stainless steel. Becomes buttery at the finish, but there are grape tannins to retain the tensions. The high concentration of dry extract gives a little bitterness to finish, which will subsequently integrate."

    • Tasted Jul 2024 - Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy | 90-93 points
