Nose is ripe and rich but also seashelly and mineral. Lovely lemon curd and classic Chablis oyster bed aromas. So clean. Expressive. Palate has terrific freshness and zip. Better than when it was young. Lovely mineral freshness as well and just terrific fruit and depth. Age transforms these wines.

Love these in a riper than normal vintage. Ripe and lemony with loads of seashells and minerals. So Chablis! Lechet is the most Chablis 1er Cru if that makes sense! Ripe and juicy with terrific freshness and purity. So balanced and compact. Good acids. Great minerality. Long. So well made.

For all the 15 Chablis haters. An amazing wine.

Nose is deep and perfumed. As it opens some herbals.

Palate is elegantly rich. Lovely. Really good. Nicely acidic. After an hour dusted minerals. Some brine.

More puligny than Chablis maybe. I’ll suffer through it.

Ass kicking long finish. Some finely dusted minerals.

Bought from fass selections.

Updated score! Got even better on days 2 and 3. This is a white to give some air. (Original: Yellow apples, lemon, pineapple, cream, some bitter green herbs. Quite rich like other 15s.)

Rich and layered Chablis. Good mineral backbone. Definitely on the fat side for Chablis. Almost creamy.
