This tastes off. Smells like old paint, and very astringent.

A couple of Dungeness crabs and this bottle were about as good as wine & good pairings get. Yes- crab juice did get all over our glasses and our decanter! After six years, this wine has blossomed into a sea shell filled, generous beauty. I am glad I backed the truck up on Tremblay's wines in 2008!

Backing up the truck on 2008 Chablis was one of my best ever decisions for the cellar. Richness, earth, electricity and a finish that won't stop!!!!

Balanced and smooth with still sufficient acidity. Touch of rancio on long finish.
