Improved since our last bottle ~2Y ago. Prior notes mostly apply, but a more confectionery nose tonight with some oak influence arriving. This bottle still wants more time, enjoy 2025-30.
(90-91pts tonight)

Nose has grilled lemon, baked green apple with sugar and wet granite, the French oak regimen seems a little more dominant then to my liking.

Palate has lemon juiced over cut green apple, lemon zest, decent FLX terrior with minor salinity and dry soil.

A young bottle, as I still complain about 2017 Chablis being too sharp and needing much more time. No overloaded acidity here, but I do see potential in this bottle for pleasant development in another 4-6 years.

This was a nice chard, green apples, expansive mouthfeel, but the oak. It was lightly oaked. Most people will like it. But I’d prefer none.
