Zippy but also ripe, almost rich. Excellent young Chablis!

Textbook! Unique Chablis earthy minerality exudes marine chalkiness, flint, chicken broth, and bright lemon-oil tinged fruit. Intense flavors glide effortlessly (as if on a mag-lev track) across the palate. Intensely stony and pure and long. Still youthful. Really classy.

Loving the '12s so far, fat without being vulgar. Lobster shell and sea water, with a nice touch of reduction.

Perfectly ripe with a peppery radish finish. Great wine for the price. Thanks, Last Bottle!

Medium minus lemon. Mint, lemon zest, leaf, grass petrol, butter. Medium plus acidity, medium sugar.
