A Best Buy
TASTING NOTE: It would be all but impossible to mistake this for anything other than a wine from Chablis as the amount of Chablis elements is remarkable in the form of smoky mineral reduction, green fruit, iodine and algae nuances. There is fine concentration and ample minerality to the medium-bodied flavors that possess that lovely sense of tension on the powerful, focused and lingering finish. What this doesn't have is much in the way of refinement but if you love classic, even \"rock licking\" Chablis character, this would make for a great choice. Outstanding. Drink: 2020+.
