As always, amazing. Minerality abound, a saline character, citrus fruit and great acid.

Wow. Candied ginger, apricot. A hair quick in the finish, but a lively balanced wine that shows how interesting Chablis can be.

Note this is the LM Forets Chablis not the Montmain…purchased alongside the Fourchame Malandes a few months ago but not nearly as good - perfectly pleasant, pleasing lack of acidity on the back end but also unremarkable
