Note di degustazione
The 2016 Chablis has a slightly reduced bouquet but it opens with aeration, classic in style with green apple and touches of undergrowth. It has a well balanced palate but it just lacks a little substance towards the finish. Fine.

The 2016 Chablis Villages was showing well, offering up an expressive bouquet of white flowers and honeyed apples, complemented by some exotic, musky top notes. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, gourmand and bright, with good concentration and cut. It's already drinking well.
(mostly "Chablis de Chablis," according to Droin, who explained that this wine does not include fruit from Préhy due to the hail and frost and is mostly from vines located between Vaillons and Montmains): Bright yellow. Ripe aromas of lemon zest, minerals and hazelnut, plus a hint of oatmeal reduction. Densely packed, rich and surprisingly fresh, with intense citrus zest and mineral flavors giving the wine a very firm finish.
This is still carrying post-malo aromas rendering the nose tough to evaluate. Otherwise there is both more volume and richness to the medium-bodied flavors that possess a succulent very round mouth feel while offering good if not truly special depth and persistence. This too should drink well early on. January 2018. www.burghound.com
