Galloni om: Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots Vieille Vigne

-- Galloni: Sweet floral notes meld into lemon, slate and crushed rocks in the 2012 Chablis Blanchots Vieilles Vignes. Bright, wiry and tense, the 2012 impresses for its exceptional overall balance. The creamy, resonant finish is a clue the wine was done entirely in oak, but there is otherwise very little evidence of wood here. The Blanchots Vieilles Vignes is one of the highlights in this range. 94/100

Tanzer om: Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots Vieille Vigne

-- Tanzer: Pale yellow. Mineral-driven aromas of crushed rock, ginger and spearmint. Sweet, spicy, intense and penetrating, showing a slight youthful bitterness to the tight flavors of lemon, chalk and salty minerality. This wine was bottled just prior to my visit and already seems to be shutting down. 92+/100

Parker om: Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots Vieille Vigne

-- Parker: The 2012 Chablis Grand Cru Les Blanchots Vieilles Vignes (one assumes there is more than one old vine, but that is how the label reads) has a deft, defined and focused bouquet with delicate floral notes intertwined with the citrus fruits and orange blossom. The palate is well-defined with a sharp citrus entry, crisp acidity and a tense and long finish that will offer more with two or three years in bottle. This has great potential. 92+/100
