Oyster shell, citrus, rock, a pinch of butter. Classic Chablis 1er cru nose. The palate is very balanced with a sheer acidity but also matter, texture : lemon, width, white flower. A long finish on acid notes that calls for another instant sip. Very good and more when confronted to a squid salad creole style (lime and chili). — 7 years ago

Served with Creole ginger-scented shrimp. Staff Selection (Roger Clark): White Bordeaux, in its ideal drinking window. Satisfying for its range of flavors, walking the fine line between bright citrus and mineral notes along with a silkier, elegant mouthfeel. A charming wine on its own, this would also be good with a variety of seafood dishes.
