Popped and poured, no formal notes. At this stage, I find the 2019 "Le Bas de Chapelot" to be absolutely delightful, if not a bit of an outlier. I write that as a compliment because this gives me 1er cru vibes despite the more humble "Chablis" designation. In actuality, the source for this bottling sits just below Montée de Tonnerre and when you consider that all of Eleni and Edouard's wines see a little bit of oak, it makes sense. This is wine of great character. It's got lovely citrus leaning fruit with some stone fruits and pomaceous fruit along with a touch of flower honey and a leesy quality that adds palpable texture on the palate. The acid and limestone minerals are there and bring balance to the force. Drinking well now and should continue to do so for many years to come. I wish this was more widely available to me as I would be reaching for it often. Definitely a producer I'm keeping my eye on. Drink now through 2029. — 10 months ago
