Montmains Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2019
Holy nostril filling chablis Batman!
Earthy wine cave, yellow apples and pears, sour green guava and spices, but not the baking spices you get from American Oaked Chardonnay- more like green cardamom and aesefeteta (sp?)
It's tight, medium high acids remain riding on a fairly silky malolactic texture. So I'd say that's a pretty good balance. Still it seems to be missing something given it's 1er cru status- there's a flatness, a lack of build in the mouth. Not really reaching the 3 dimensionality I was hoping for. — 8 months ago

Vaillons Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2017
A pale, clear lemon color in the glass. Really nice acidity and character. Floral aromas off top with juicy pears and lemon peel complimenting. Chamomile and olive juice with dried herbs. Really nice nose.
Terrific value to be found here as it always is with wines from this co-op. Very balanced with nice structure. Chalky with a blast of minerality. Smooth and easy drinking throughout. After some time in the glass, it does begin to blossom It’s a very terroir driven Chablis.

Sainte Céline Chablis Chardonnay 2021
Merely good #chablis - still delicious with dried lemon, crushed oyster shell nose, distinctive precise Chablisienne acidity, atypically smells like some neutral oak and resultant spice on the finish versus my QPR benchmark Kirkland Signature Premier Cru but solid #bourgogneblanc nonetheless. — 3 years ago
