Popped and poured into red Solo cups. The 2012 “Grands Terroirs” pours a straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, this is intensely autolytic with notes of fresh, toasted brioche, baked apple, raspberry, lemon curd and limestone minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. From magnum. Drink now through 2037. Disgorged June 2021. — 3 months ago
A text book, Sevres standard of a Chablis.
Razor sharp, oyster fresh and with brilliant minerality yet also quite some breadth.
Brilliant freshness & great depth.
Packs a punch on the palate - fresh lemon juice paired with chalky minerality. The length is infinite. And the depth inspiring.
A brilliant food wine but also nice for sipping. — 6 months ago
Consistency is their middle name.
This has just started to shift from fresh to aging.

Gorgeously red fruited and boisterous nose. Red cherries all the way. Stunning stony aromas as well and unreal lift. Lots of red cherry skin as well. Terrific energy and chord progression fruit as well. Juicy, complex and very energetic and appears wide open at first but let’s see where air takes it. Wondeful acidify and freshness and lovely sour cherry fruit. Really fine and velvety tannins and I can’t believe how red fruited it is. Sweet and ripe tannins. Terrific inner mouth aromas with air and insane sweetness. A winner! Now with 7 hours of air it’s so stoney and classically Pommard. Palate is ample and juicy and super mineral with tangy red fruits. But man is this mineral. Like licking stones. — 3 months ago
