Estimate
Opulent and full-bodied, this combines the flinty, mineral character of Chablis with honey and baking bread aromas and flavors, all backed by a bracing acidity
Deep, complex nose melds grapefruit, powdered stone, apple and mint. A step up in concentration and texture from the foregoing premier crus. Thick, suave and seamless; dry, classy and rich. Finishes very long, with a flavor of wet stone.
...Lovely zesty, savoury nutty minerality on the nose. Woody rather than oaky. Very savoury on the palate, dry and powerful yet fresh and lithe. A hint of lime on the finish shows just how fresh it still is...
..Interesting notes of fennel, green Chablis fruit and straw introduce medium weight, slightly austere, understated, precise flavors that deliver plenty of complexity and length..
