Tasting notes
Pale straw-yellow color. Fresh but restrained scents of soft citrus fruits and oyster shell minerality. Then round and sweet in the mouth, but with surprising sappiness and lemony lift. This can be enjoyed anytime.

The 2015 Chablis Villages is clearly a higher level of quality than the Petit Chablis this year, sporting more freshness and vigor. The palate is slightly waxy in texture, with white citrus fruit mixed with nectarine and a pinch of white pepper toward a somewhat conservative, approachable finish. Drink this capable Chablis over the next three or four years.

(I tasted this sample from tank but a portion of this village wine had already been bottled by the time of my visit): Bright yellow-green. Very fresh aromas of lemon and lime lifted by spices. Boasts very good juicy intensity but shows a touch of youthful harshness. Not bad.
