This 2022 is a beauty. Suckling rates it outstanding, saying:
A creamy and salty white that has notes of oyster shells, lemon peel, grapefruit and salted almonds. It’s medium-bodied, balanced and lightly mineral.
And Burghound:
More interesting are the plump, round and utterly delicious medium weight flavors that possess a borderline creamy texture that contrasts with the punchy bitter lemon rind-inflected finish. This should drink well almost immediately while having enough structure to repay short-term cellaring.
And from the Grape Observer:
This is another textbook wine from top Chablis co-operative, La Chablisienne. Presenting good value and typicity for around the $40 mark, the wine has Chablis aromas and flavours of stones, shells and lemon. The palate is medium bodied and freshened by high acidity and some lees texture. This wine can be drunk now and over the next 4 to 6 years.
And Master of Wine Andy Howard:
A more serious, intellectual wine than the 'straight' Chablisienne Chablis. Acidity is more pronounced and the nose is more strident. A Chablis that will be very good but which needs another year in bottle to fully integrate and balance the high acidity. Lots of potential and great purity of flavour - just needs more time.
