1997 La Chablisienne Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet- France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru (1/18/2022)
Hit a home run with this tattered looking bottle! Gorgeous shimmering gold green color…to die for nose of crushed oyster shell, sea air, green apple, exotic honey butter, crushed flowers, mint. YES YES YES…FU premox…this little coop kicked its ass wit this one! Tons of crushed chalky minerality in this…salty rocks, sea air funk…to go with the waxy pitted orchard fruits…still sweet and ripe, and cut so nicely with the jazzed lemon citrus…wonderful integration with some aged honey and truffle…nuanced smoked vanilla oak spice…creamy with some almond butter…waxy spearmint giving Ramonet the nod…such a stunner aged Chablis…couldn’t ask for more from this little 1er!

2014 La Chablisienne Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu - France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis 1er Cru (2/11/2023)
Come on man…Raveneau $500…this wine $30! Drink this ALL DAY LONG! Luv me some Rav, but save it for the big splurge! Classic salty sea air, chalky crushed limestone, bright and zesty lemon/lime/green apple fruits…creamy 1er weight with an intriguing dried honey and mint dry extract…VERY Chablis in character with a depth you just don’t get at this price point…no Rav wax…so you save yourself $470! Another La Chablisienne that SCREAMS MF’n CHABLIS! (94 points)
