"Minerality, balance and freshness are the order of the day!
"Bright aromas of pear and white peach are complemented by a lovely citrus freshness that makes this regular, medium-bodied Chablis appealing and refreshing. Made entirely from estate-grown fruit. Everything holds together very well, including a hint of wood. Drink now. (James Suckling 2022)
