"In 2007, this closely resembles the aromatic profile and character of the straight Chablis except there is more mid-palate concentration as well as superior depth and length. Terrific quality for its level and highly recommended."

"An overtly spicy nose has lemon zest and sea breeze nuances to the ripe green fruit aromas that merge into almost painfully intense, precise and very firm medium-bodied flavors supported by a solid acid spine and pungent minerality. There is not the finesse here o (more...)

"A superbly elegant nose of white floral and spice aromas serve as the ideal introduction to the pure, racy and focused flavors that are almost painfully intense and brimming with both minerality and that wonderful sense of underlying tension on the sappy and mouth (more...)

"A ripe and notably complex nose features ripe green fruit, oyster shell, algae and a saline component that is also picked up by the pure, intense and energetic flavors with cuts-like-a-knife precision on the minerally finish that boasts plenty of underlying tensio (more...)

"I'm treading on David's territory by reviewing this Chablis, but I loved this 2006 from a producer who uses no oak. It's hard to find a good white Burgundy for under $25, but this tank-fermented, impressive Chablis offers strong minerality along with lemon zest an (more...)

"As the best examples of Lechet always are, this boasts an ultra elegant nose of citrus blossom, oyster shell, warm stone and lemon zest, the latter of which is also reflected by the textured, racy, detailed and bone dry flavors brimming with plenty of Chablis char (more...)

"A slightly more elegant nose that is beautifully layered and complex features white flower, citrus, oyster shell, iodine and tidal pool notes that are in perfect keeping with the round but detailed medium-bodied flavors that deliver excellent persistence on the sa (more...)

"From vines averaging 40 years of age, the Raveneau 2006 Chablis Montee de Tonerre features ripe pineapple, lychee, grapefruit, and brown spices; piquant, pithy, yet deeply sweet nuttiness; an almost tactile sense of chalk dust; formidable sheer density; and a brot (more...)

"Here there is considerably more aromatic depth with a green fruit, tidal pool and oyster shell suffused nose that introduces rich, nicely full and impressively concentrated medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent intensity and outstanding finishing verve. Thi (more...)

"Here the lightly wooded nose screams Chablis save perhaps for an interesting hint of mint and the sea shore element is particularly strong as they slide seamlessly into round, rich and full-bodied flavors that are cool, refined, intense and driving, all wrapped in (more...)

"Pale color. Very fresh aromas of lemon and pink grapefruit. Brisk and sexy, with precise lemon and mineral flavors complicated by a toasty nuance. Finishes a bit youthfully tough from the recent bottling, but this penetrating village wine should make a delicious d (more...)

"A highly perfumed nose redolent of classic Chablis character is followed by intensely mineral infused flavors that finish with real verve and a touch of oyster shell nuance. Lovely if not especially concentrated or complex at this point but there is plenty of pers (more...)

"A ripe but completely classic green fruit nose that is exceptionally fresh leads to pure and relatively elegant middle weight flavors that culminate in a racy mineral suffused finish that is quite dry. This is not especially complex though it is certainly of solid (more...)

"Not surprisingly, here there is a clear step in elegance if not necessarily overall complexity with a mix of green fruit, floral, seaweed and iodine notes that give way to more refined medium-bodied flavor (more...)

"As one would reasonably expect, this displays a notably more complex array of aromas that include ripe green fruit, sea shore and salt water notes that complement the equally rich, full and serious medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent purity and punch on t (more...)

"Talk about an Old Reliable: the quality and true Chablis character has kept me going back to buy every vintage chez Lavantureux since the mid-seventies. Talk about an old reliable: after I tasted through his cuvees and selected this very 2006 to be bottled for (more...)
