Hay gold in color. The nose is filled with green apples and some chalk. A bit of underlying minerality. On the palate, sour green apples which get stronger with air. Good acidity, but not great (especially for Chablis). Long finish. Lots of fruit here. This will go with a wide variety of light and medium weight foods. Not quite what I think of for Chablis, but very much a nice Chardonnay (if that makes sense). Available at Nakedwines.com.

Chablis continues to be an excellent source or white Burgundy especially when considering the price and the premox issues. While Chablis is not immune on either issue, it is a bit better on both. This is a newer-ish producer making some great wines and reasonable pricing. Light silvery gold in color. The nose is very nice with green apples and chalk. Very clean. On the palate, those flavors continue with a nice depth and complexity. Very nice acidity. Some grapefruit as well. Long finish.

No matter, it still has a nice green apple and mineral flavor set with is quite refreshing and de
Gold/green in color, clear and bright. The nose has chalk, salinity and green apples. Medium bodied. Moderate acidity. No sharp edges. On the palate, red apples with slight chalk. Easy drinking. Moderate finish. Drinking well now and should for another five to eight years. This would work well with shell fish.
As prices for white Burgundy in general and Chablis in particular continue to rise, it is nice to find still affordable producers making great wine. This is one such producer. the wine is made in a concrete egg and sees no oak. Light golden in color with some green hues, clear and bright. The nose is nice with crushed shells, slight chalk/minerality and lemon. Medium bodied. Lean and racy texture. Good acidity. On the palate, lemons and crushed shells. Long finish. This is drinking well now and should continue to drink well for another ten to twelve years. Nice on its own, this w
