Light golden in color. The nose has minerals, smoke, slight gun powder and plenty of peachces. On the palate, there is a sour lemon quality that is very nice. Clean with lots of energy. This is a round wine but the energy replaces some of the acidity. Nice finish. Drinking well now, it should last for anothr five to seven years.
Visiting wine country? Why spend $250 per day in tasting fees when you can get the wine pass and pay less then half of that? 1 Day with the wine pass = $125+ in savings. 2 Days with the wine pass = $250+ in savings. The Priority Wine Pass
Medium golden in color. The nose has green apples with a slight chalkiness. On the palate, there is a slight gun powder note with tart lemons. Plush texture. Slightly yeasty. Is this barrel fermented? An interesting take on Chablis that I very much enjoyed. Seemed to be love or hate it at the table. It does seem a bit advanced for its age. If this bottle was representative, it probably should be consumed in the next five years.
Light green/gold in color. The nose is tight at first. It turns dusty with some lemon. With more air a bit of gun powder shows up. Better on the palate. This is oily with a round texture. Nice minerality. Good finish. Those I tasted with liked this relative to the other wines, more than I. It is not as crisp as the other Chablis and drinks more like it was from Cote de Beaune (which might not be a bad thing). This might get a bit better but I wouldn't count on it. That said, it should easily last a decade. I will be great with shellfish and other seafood.
Silvery/green/gold in color. The nose has gun powder, slight lemons on a medium intensity nose. On the palate, this has a slick texture. Chalk and minerals with slight green apple flavors. Good acidity. Nice finish. Drinking well now and a bit leaner (in a good way) than many of the 2015's. It should be good drinking for at least the next decade. It should go well with seafood and lighter salads.
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.
This was oxidized. It's hard to say Pre-Mox since it is 17 years old, but this should not have been in this shape. It had been purchased a decade or so ago and well stored since then. Deep gold in color. The nose is slightly oxidized, but not quite to a "sherry" level. On the palate, there is some lime fruit and a bit of butterscotch. But it is oxidized more than the nose. Perhaps still a bit drinkable but why? White Burgundy issues have extended into some Chablis wines, but it's hard to say that is what happened here. This seems more of a less than great cork and a 17 year old Cha
