High fill. Straw gold, noticeably lighter than the 90 Dauvissat Clos. Notes of pit fruit, white soil, white stones, some spice - and with several all hours of air, the honey notes appeared. Started out strong, then went into a funk and was quiet. But returned late in the evening for a solid finish with nice old Chablis fruit and memorable acidity. (Bday dinner 3/13)

Light gold color viscous in the glass like oil. Very quiet and subdued over first 3-4 hours sitting in a decant but then this blossomed in a big way. Notes of citrus, honey, wet river stone and soil. Wasn't til hour 9 that it was at its best. Needed a lot of air and time. Best white of the night for me.

From the Tour dArgent wine list. FnA. This is amazing Chablis. Light to med gold. Closed at first. Just wait... There it is. Kermidgean white soil and white rock stone. Shell bits. Over 3 hrs this built into that honeyed mineral stone pit fruit thing that is aged Raveneau. It's what got me interested in Chablis. It's why that disease continues.

This is more evolved than the 1989 Vaillons (surprisingly), but very, very nice older Chablis, medium-long finish, excellent tonight!!
