The 2016 Chablis Villages wasn't too heavily impacted by the year's frosts, and it's quite classic in profile, offering up aromas of lemon oil, grapefruit pith, white flowers and crisp apples. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, elegantly glossy and bright, with a fleshy core underpinned by bright acids and a tangy, mouthwatering finish.
Two plots either side of Montmains. Opulent honey and lime with mangoes and peaches. The palate has a grilled-almond edge, as well as smooth, deep and fleshy lemon curd here. There’s a long, fluidity here.
