$34 on a wine list, you're not drinking anything better for the price in a restaurant. Far better than the $15 BTG option from Sonoma Coast with 100% malo and screaming new oak. Good stuff. 2nd bottle was not in good shape, cork showed seepage 3/4 way up.

Classic example of 'WHY' Chablis has been quintessential Chardonnay for centuries . . . Citrus-Rock-Acidity. Only missing the needed plate of Wianno Oysters

Classic example of 'WHY' Chablis has been quintessential Chardonnay for centuries. Citrus, rock and acidity. The missing element was: we had no Wianno oysters on the table
