  This young, textured wine shows a mix of strong minerality and ripe white fruits. The Albert Bichot Chablis domaine has a fine parcel from this premier cru. Refreshing citrus and tight acidity contrast with the warmer vanilla and yellow fruits. Drink from 2021.

  From one of the largets premier crus from the left bank of Chablis, this is ripe and full in the mouth, although with a cooler nervy texture that gives attractive fresh acidity. It has a bright and fruity character, just hinting at a touch of toast from the 10% wood aging. Drink…

  Closed and firm, this wine has considerable structure, tannic and steely together. It's a forbidding wine at this stage, although it will develop much greater fruitiness and freshness as it ages. Under the structure, the wine has apple skin, hints of apricots and green pear flav…

  This 2011 is an aristocratic wine, with a mineral character that is now rounding out. Yellow and green fruits mingle with some tannins and a steely core. It will age for several years more, so drink from 2018.

  Rich, deliciously fruity and ripe, this combines warmth with a more mineral undertow that cuts through the palate, creating a wine that is refreshing and mouth-filling. It would be worth aging for two years or more.

  The wine has aromas of pears. There is plenty of fruit here, but the freshness is missing, giving a southern, warm feel.

  A ripe, open style of wine, giving white fruits, even some peach flavors, with toast and sweetness. There is weight, and a dense texture as well, the acidity lifting the finish.

  Fresh and soft initially, this wine takes a while to reveal some mineral structure. But then, deliciously friendly white fruits surround this taut structure. The acidity is crisp, fresh, leaving orange zest and green fruits for the finish.

  A very vibrant, lively wine, all mineral and fresh acidity. There is some austerity as the fruit still needs to round out; but it promises to develop well, with delicious green apple and grapefruit flavors. Keep this for 3–4 years.
