Montée de Tonnerre Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2017

I read an article recently where the author felt that this 1er cru probably deserved to be a Grand Cru. Whilst this was very good I think it is right at Premier Cru. Initial notes were salinity amongst the apple, citrus flavours and a touch of beeswax. The following night tasted more “new World “. This was very enjoyable but needs to develop more complexity. I will leave my remaining bottle for a couple of years. — 7 months ago

"Thunder Mountain" tastes like Grand Cru in the right hands. The priciest of the 1er Crus but more affordable than Grand Cru stuff, it occupies the sweet spot as it relates to QPR.

@Bob McDonald , I can state that the Raveneau MdT Chablis I’ve had from the 1980s were certainly of Grand Cru quality!

Top pinot
Lots of depth, personality and length of flavor
Crisp like a white and almost as complex as a Burgundian pinot
I am very pleased here

9.3

Paul Hobbs two nights in a row! Gold color. Very deep, thick wine with subtle acidity. Aged pineapple with stone fruits and subtle apricot, peach, and melon elements. Fairly unique and complex in my mind. I prefer other single vineyard Paul Hobbs Chards style wise but wasn’t bad by any means. 93.5 rounding up. — 2 years ago

"Côte Bouguerots" Bougros Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2014

I think this might be my favorite Fevre wine, even more Les Clos and Preuses. Distinctly Chablis, but I get some stone fruit and honeysuckle. So good — 8 months ago
