Chablis, perfect to cut through all the doom and gloom, flinty, ripping acid, delightful, very much looking forward to the next election cycle

Lovely, with a richness that stays firmly rooted in Chablis. Full of ripe orchard fruit, limestone minerality, and deft use of oak. I'd drink more chardonnay if I could afford more GC Chablis.

At a really great place right now. Seashells and citrus, balanced with a background of oak.

Straw with green hints; orchard fruit and mineral from a somewhat quiet nose; the mouth is lush, silky and saline, this is intense and delicious. Some spiciness came with time. Expecting still more to follow from this excellent bottle.

Nez et bouche sur les fruits jaunes surtout, du menthol et moins typée Chablis ou Droin, la bouche est agréable, ronde, assez riche, la tension n’est pas tranchante ou pas autant typée que l’on pourrait s’attendre d’un Valmur GC. C’est bien mais sans être grand. 89-90
A nice bottle but not to GC level and not typical of Droin. Yellow orchard fruit, some menthol, round and rich, tension and acidity a bit low and non typical.
