This is better than I expected (not sure why I had modest expectations). Gorgeous old school greenish tinge to the color. Boisterous nose has tons of sea shelly limestone and super bright green apple, citrusy fruit. A bit of that Chablis brothiness in the background. Lively, crisp, and intense in the mouth. Very linear. No fat at all. Just a beam of energy.

Somewhat ripe aromas and flavors, great acidity to balance this out, solid depth and complexity, long, lingering finish, very fine 1er Cru Chablis!!

A Naked Wines offering
Not a disappointment. I picked up cabbage and sweet corn on the nose, but that didn't turn me off, but gave me some idea what to expect and not expect from this 13%, 3 year old Chablis.
Lemon custard - a nice rounded acidity for a chardonnay grape.
I would buy it again.
Actually for $24 I would look around.
