This was actually the “Homme Mort” 1er cru but i can’t get Delectable to properly name it. Delicious, a bigger rich style for Chablis — 10 months ago
Star bright yellow gold. Inviting nose and medium light palate of tart yellow apple, with the palate adding a flinty mineral note that's classic Chablis. Acidity is medium plus: just right to support a wide range of cuisines. Northern French and seafood are obvious pairs, but I enjoyed with the Louisiana favorite, jambalaya. Drink now through 2026. — 3 months ago

The paradox of a wine that appears as "dead for then reborn" is the sensation that this wine provides, which we can't imagine drinking so old (16 years old). The dress is ruby-tile, unfiltered. In the mouth, notes of red fruits (strawberry) are always imposed with vivacity, supported by multiple and aerial notes of evolution. Light bitters bring a very interesting paradoxical dimension for those who love evolved wines.
Le paradoxe d’un vin qui apparaît comme « mort pour puis re-né » voilà la sensation que procure ce vin, qu’on imagine pas boire si vieux (16 ans). La robe est rubis-tuile, non filtrée. En bouche des notes de fruits rouges (fraise) s’imposent toujours avec vivacité, soutenues par des notes d’évolution multiples et aériennes. De légers amers apportent une dimension paradoxale fort intéressantes pour qui aiment les vins évolués. — 2 years ago
Nose is so airy and mineral with a bit of fat but not much. Seashells. oyster bed, some green apple and lovely wet rain effect. A scene in nature as I like to say. Palate is rich and ripe but with so much nerve and energy and an icing on the cake like texture. Great purity, density and concentration. Long, tangy finish. Really compelling and a bit cold and young so will follow. Nose gets some lemon curd and spice now with air. Wonderful combo of opulence and tension. Really nailed the vintage. — 4 months ago

Fizzy berries on slate, very pleasantly effervescent, I love it. Lingering limestone. — 3 months ago
