A fantastic bottle of Chablis-adjacent, just great a year since our last bottle. Please see prior notes on the vintage. (Dehydrated apple notes are more prominent tonight.)

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our guest conductor Karina Canellakis is leading WAGNER (Prelude to Lohengrin, Act 1), CHOPIN (Piano Concerto No. 2 in F minor, Opus 21) with one of our local treasures, Emanuel (Manny!) Ax on piano and then RACHMANINOFF (Symphonic Dances, Opus 45). A fantastic night is ahead of us!

Unreal nose. Just so beautiful. Huge perfume. Seashells. Oyster shells. Unmistakably Chablis. So so mineral. There is no fruit. An exercise in a blast of terroir so intense you gotta be a wine geek to enjoy it. Salty. White pepper. A perfume that is broad and precise. Really really beautiful. Palate terrific and has some ripe fruit, green apple mostly, a nice hit of richness in the texture, good purity and a lonely initial blast of fruit/mineral concentrate and then the finish is all seashells that linger. Excellent wine for the appellation.

As it airs it picks up weight on the palate. Terrific wine for no money. So salty and fresh.

Nose has dried seashells, lemon peel, white pepper and sliced lemon.

Palate has salted lemon wedge, dehydrated green apple and wet, crushed seashells.

Medium body, mineral drive is excellent and runs through the complete finish. I would suggest this vineyard site has a majority of calcareous soils. Decanted 60m.

Paired with grilled steelhead trout, delicious.

Very good value Petit Chablis. Pretty classically chablis - oyster shells and some salinity, good acid. Body / depth is on the lighter side, but this is still a very nice wine for <$20
