Not as deliberately oxidative, but still too oxidative to be Chablis.

As per last bottle. Lovely concentration, typical Chablis notes, acid—only the finish comes up slightly short.

Very fine 1er Chablis and a terrific value from Rosenthal. Baked apple, lemon oil, seashell. Unbelievably fresh. Long finish. 😍

Trying too hard to find something good here. Not in the mood for oxidated Chablis tonight.
