Tasting notes
Notes of fresh bread, orange oil, crisp orchard fruit, apricot and almond paste introduce the 2018 Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered wine that's ample and nicely concentrated for the vintage, with chalky grip and a saline finish.

The 2018 Chablis Les Blanchots Grand Cru did not quite engage the senses on the nose. Following on from the delightful Côte de Léchet, it is just missing a bit of lift and vigor. The palate is much better, featuring lemon zest, lime and light orange peel notes on the entry, a fine bead of acidity, and a concentrated, quite penetrating finish that leaves a saline aftertaste. I will be prudent with my score for now, hoping that the aromatics will get their act together.
