I guess I haven't had very much Chablis with age on it. This was nutty and burnished; too light to partner with richer foods and missing that youthful vibrancy that goes well with lighter fare. Weird wine. 2009 vintage

Surprisingly ripe but without losing the citrus profile. Flinty bouquet with a touch of yellow flower. Nice and lean on the palate. Would age it

Decent Chablis. First sip reminds me of a sense of cotton candy.
