Description

This exquisite terroir stands out as the epitome of flamboyance among Pinson's Chablis 1ers Crus. Its captivating aromatics intertwine fresh spices with the indulgent essence of crème anglaise and vanilla ice cream. Abundantly generous, the palate delights with a luxurious richness, while a refreshing lift of lemon sherbet gracefully concludes each sip, cleansing and revitalizing the palate with perfection.

Review

This one is not put in oak. As a result, very reductive. Also in fact a touch more yellow in the colour, still with a lick of green. Starts well but then becomes a little fleshy at the back and loses some of its grip. Shows a little warmth. Drink from 2026-2033.

Review

Smoky and firm reduction is enough to overshadow the underlying fruit at present. Otherwise, the rich, generous and caressing medium-bodied flavors possess good volume while delivering fine length on the dry and quite powerful if slightly rustic finale. Drink 2029+

Tasting Profile
nose

On the nose, there's an evident smokiness intertwined with a firm reduction, overshadowing the subtler fruit notes for the moment. Despite this, there's richness and generosity waiting to be discovered. These traits translate onto the palate, where medium-bodied flavors offer a caressing texture and ample volume. The finish, while dry and robust, carries a hint of rustic charm, providing satisfying length.

palate

The palate reveals a smoky and firmly structured reduction that currently dominates over the underlying fruit. Nevertheless, there's richness and generosity present, with caressing medium-bodied flavors that exhibit good volume. The finish, though dry and quite powerful, leans slightly towards rusticity, offering fine length.
