Louis Michel Chablis 2012
Louis Michel 2012 Chablis | 12.5% | A Chablis with a rounder more curlicue sort of fragrance –less limestone and lemon peel and more toward the snappy apple and firm pineapple but well shy of anything heavily ripened. No. This is a gum licking restorative with a bit of that gunflint sort of minerality and plenty of quenching structure but more defined by its polish and juicy appeal. A Duke of Windsor sort of Chablis who was born and bred for great things and entirely capable but perhaps a bit more nonchalant for the old guard and still better than the best of them and stylish from breakfast to the wee hours; it is a invigorating white for all hours.
