Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of three days. Great on Day 1 and even better on Day 3. The 2023 Montmains pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with bright, powerful notes of green apple, passion fruit, freshly struck match, lemon oil, white tree flowers, and limestone minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, floral and mineral laden with a silky texture. Simply fabulous. Drink now with patience through 2038. 4300 bottles made. Thanks for the assist @Lyle Fass — 5 days ago

Dirty mid Ruby in colour - tawny highlights On the nose red fruits (strawberries) with a touch of barnyard. A light to medium weight palate showing red fruits and sweet spice, but essentially a simple uncomplicated wine despite the fact that it cost $180 AUD. This is where good new World Pinots supercede Burgundies like this. The next night a better showing but no great complexity. — 9 months ago

Lemon, sea salt, just a touch of honey, minerality really shows on the palate, good acid, lovely depth and length, drinking beautifully tonight. — 12 hours ago

Killer nose: stanky, lemony, green apple, with so much soil, stone, Kimmeridgian oyster-bed character and Chablis soul. The mouthfeel is the whole story here. Rich, juicy, opulent and hedonistic in texture, but absolutely alive, with real voltage underneath. Deep, layered, mouthwatering and beautifully mineral, with that classic oyster-shell salinity running through the fruit. A basic Chablis only in name. This has serious depth, energy and texture. — a month ago

Young, fresh, still quite primary fruit in this younger 1er Cru Vaillons, some tart lemon acidity, some fine minerality, a floral note as well, medium-long finish, needs a little more aging (2-4 years?) for my palate, but very, very nice!! — 4 months ago

2017- Vintage- red rim, light cherry fruit, violets , acacia wood ,medium to medium plus acidity, a little light in terms of mouthfeel but still pretty aromatically at nine years old aging nicely - have one more bottle will revisit it a couple years — 3 months ago

Lovely aged 1er Cru Chablis, still quite fresh and lively, great fruit and complexity, lots of balancing acidity, I think the 2014 Cote de Lechet might be the top 2014 1er Cru, but this is darn good as well, long finish, “weird” perception on my palate, but I definitely perceived a subtle, yet distinct, “toasted coconut” note at one point (common in the beer pastry stout arena)!! — 4 months ago
