Need more to store away for awhile, but this is still gorgeous young. Lemon pith, lime peel, oodles of minerality, parmesan rind, and ripping acidity.

Half bottle - really nice and worth the $40 at the restaurant. Juicy for a Chablis but some acidity.

Light gold robe with golden sparkles. Lemon bouquet with a secondary aroma of lemon meringue. Light and elegant citrus on the palate evolving into a brilliant mineral presence with impressive balance and finish. Lively and vivacious. A feminine expression of a Chablis 1er Cru. #burgundy #chablis #chardonnay #premiercru #winegeek #winelover #côtedelechet #vinblanc @vin_elegance
