Note di degustazione
The 2017 Chablis Forêt 1er Cru is soft, open-knit and gracious. Almond, marzipan, dried lemon peel, sage, dried flowers and mint all grace this wonderfully expressive and inviting Chablis. The 2017 was only bottled about two months before this tasting, but it is one of the more accessible wines in the range, which means it will likely be one of the first of the 2017s to be fully expressive. Medium in body and absolutely impeccable in its balance, the 2017 has a lot to offer.

The 2017 Chablis 1er Cru Forêt is showing very well, bursting with scents of orange rind, green apple, white peach and spring flowers. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with an elegantly textural attack, a pretty core of fruit and a long, precise finish. This is quite reminiscent of the 2010 rendition chez Raveneau, and it is well worth seeking out.
The 2017 Chablis La Forêt 1er Cru has a complex bouquet: Granny Smith, sea cave and struck flint – classic Chablis aromas really. The palate is very well defined, quite saline with a twist of bitter lemon surfacing towards the finish that demonstrates fine persistence in the mouth. This is an impressive Forêt that could be the "dark horse" of the vintage from the Domaine.
Two plots at an average age of 30 years old. A very fresh, approachable and smooth style of peaches and apricots. Supple, fresh apricots, too. A soft and charming finish. Earlier drinking here.
