10 year old Chablis is getting flinty and smoky. Beeswax, honey, toasted almonds.

Still high acid, but fruit is sort of smoothing out and giving way to more nutty and saline characteristics.

Still mineral driven but edging closer to saline than stoney.

Green orchard fruits are still the backbone in terms of fruit. But way more on the savory side at this point.

Lacking maybe a bit of structural brightness but it is still sleek like a whisper — 2 months ago

Tertiary aromas of vanilla cream are dominant. I could breathe this in all night. Its frangrance is nutritious. Grapefruit, lemon, and baked pear.

Beautiful mouthfeel of lemon oil translates to the palate as well. A hint of vanilla bean and grapefruit. Transports me to the treelined downtown streets of Santa Barbara and the rolling hill drive up to wine country windows down, pacific breeze, mountains around. — 2 months ago
