Chablis

Tight energy here - taut and firm, but great fruit, nice and ripe apple and pear, lurk behind. There is a good weight and it has a certain richness, but a dusty finish of nice minerality keeps th...(more info)

In such a warm vintage the Boudin family have done a great job here presenting a fresh and nicely clipped Chablis. As ever their trademark soft fruit and weight is in there but delivered brightly...(more info)

Fantastic opener here with Denis and Isabelle. This attractive, juicy and beautifully ripe on the attack. Nicely fresh in the middle palate with lemon oil and crunchy orchard fruit. Just pithy en...(more info)

Lovely. Feels fresh but the fruit weigh is soft and generous. Ample and fleshy with warm citrus juice. This is classic Beauroy. The nicely, sunny spot gives that good weight - and then comes a wh...(more info)

Interesting, spice on nose soft ginger and lime perk up this enticing nose. Follows to the palate with crunch of white fruit and some soft peach and pineapple elements too. Good power - good prec...(more info)
