CONCLUSIONS
Quality:very-good (will probably get even better over next 1-2 years)


I found the following vivino review useful:

1) Classic butterscotch and vanilla on the nose (although very light), but heavy citrus and minerality on the palate. A lovely tartness on the finish. For me it lacks a certain elegance, but it's a good Chablis by any measure.


2) Clear light straw color. The nose showed clean bright citrus. On the palate the wine confirmed the citrus notes with a gravel/rocky finish. A very classic Chablis
