Wonderfully intense, green, slightly austere Chablis fruit aromas lead to richly detailed, mouth coating and sappy flavors of extraordinary pungency and while this doesn't quite have the size of the '00 Valmur, it has all of the intensity and length. In short, this is a first rate effort with plenty of classic Chablis character.

( bottled last November) Pure, expressive aromas of crystallized lemon rind and spices; quickly closed up in the glass. Dense, ripe and generous, with flavors of powdered stone and spices and very good intensity and grip. Then finishes with sneaky length, and a tactile quality.
