Les Lys Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay
Nose is a bit vegetal. Lemon zest.
Palate is perfect. Mineral. A hint of lemon peel. Almost sweet rocks made from lemons. Some clever density.
A Chablis geek wine.

Palate is racy, energetic, savory and rich. Terrific sap and energy. Amazing texture. Dynamite finish and just sick sick texture. Wow. So long, juicy and nimble. A stunner. Has years to go as well.

Fesh lemon and grapefruit, balanced acidity. Still more structure and minerality than fruit and excellent with seafood. Thuis is what properly aged and mature 1er cru Chablis is about.
