Powerful elegance

A damned good bottle of Chablis, this. He machine harvests, so we are told.

Chablis Grand Cru Grenouille 2002, Jean-Paul and Benoît Droin

A very powerful, concentrated nose of flinty minerals and lemony fruit. It smells quite big. It is quite weighty on the palate too. Lots of concentration. There is great acidity running through it, and a good mineral tang. This is excellent Chablis, best I’ve had in a while.
