La Forest Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2022

David T
9.2

Continuing quest to taste as many 22’s as possible.

Beautiful honeysuckle notes, Meyer lemon and spring flowers on the nose.

The palate show a good presence of Meyer lemon right at the top. Butterscotch notes, honeysuckle-honey comb, apricots, yellow peach, ripe, syrupy pineapple, cream, slivered almonds, saline, flinty notes, limestone marl, toast, some soft white spices, lots of moist to mushy chalk, yellow & spring flowers, excellent, round acidity and a well made, elegant, round, lush, finish that lasts 90 seconds landing on spice & minerals.

This will merit another point of two with appropriate age but still hard to justify $240 a bottle. The strong lemon presence needs time to calm.

Cote de Lechet Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2014

Wow, super impressive 1er Chablis, initially shows some burnt match aromas, which then yields to some ripe lemony aromas and flavors, some minerality pokes through, great underlying acidity keeps it fresh and focused, long, lingering finish, absolutely excellent!! — 2 months ago

@Severn Goodwin, I know the importer of this bottle (West Coast), and he once told me that it was the 2014 Cote de Lechet that convinced him of the greatness of this producer’s wines!!

Les Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2015

From magnum this wine was fresh, crisp, mineral, with delightful aromatics reminiscent of citrus. While perfect for the meal being consumed, I was more measured in my assessment of a score! — 18 days ago

Rattlesnake Acres Napa Valley Petite Sirah 2006

Unbelievable petite still delivers huge burst of fruit albeit a bit more restrained than bottles consumed last year. Beautiful bouquet of berries and earth promise great depth of flavor. The wine is brilliantly balanced and perfectly complemented pork tenderloin at Midway Mercantile. Enjoyed the dinner and wine immensely! — a month ago

La Geynale Cornas Syrah 2016

Beautiful wine. Feeling suspended in time. Lots of energy, deepness and Sicily complexity. The fruit is now overtaken by the spiciness so it may need more air or more time to evolve in bottle. Can still improve. — 2 months ago

Saint-Pierre Chablis Chardonnay 2022

Bright lemon color with aromas of citrus, stone fruits and nutty flinty floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and citrus with floral notes and herb spice. Medium+ finish, vivid acidity ending with citrus and stony mineral spice. Nice!
