Very good. Fresh, precise and lifted. Hints of lime and oyster shells. Very clear and defined. A but if salinity in the finish.

Called Burgundy on this, but my notes should have led me to Chablis. Not my favorite from this Vineyard, but delicious either way.

Not my favorite Chablis from this vineyard. A bit overworked for my taste. Lacking the clean bite I want. Not bad but missed expectations.

Killer acidity, bright and crisp. Wet stone, white flowers, green apple and chalk. All the usual suspects. Light creaminess on the palate. Delightful.

Give it some time but it’s already telling the future. It’s got that stony smoky smell that is gonna meld well into the apple blossom backdrop. A bit austere in youth but still damn tasty.

Nice drinking Chablis & a great QPR at $30 that was open with good structure showing lemon, citrus, saline & mineral.

A tad richer than I am used to. Aromatics of lemon, green apples and white flowers. Soft palate, with medium acidity and mineral feel. Medium+ length. Opens up a little in the glass. Not my favorite version of Montée de Tonnerre.

en magnum, super focus and acidity, ripe citrus fruit, what a deal at $50 for a 1.5 liter.
