Good Chablis. Very dry. Mineral notes. I like this style but some may find it overly dry. Some Chablis are more open and more full. Mark D. Sun Mar 17 18:18:36 UTC 2013 lovely crispy drinking wine, exactly as a nice light chablis should be. more will be ordered Daniel S. Thu Feb 21 16:55:30 UTC 2013 I've been meaning to try this wine for a couple of months and after labouring away at an exchange with Sebastien in French in Jane's review below, I felt somewhat obliged to try this sooner rather than later. If I read Sebastien's last comment correctly, I think he's suggesting that this wine develops as it increases in temperature so we did just that. I've been reading a lot about wine recently and a lot of what I'm reading about Chablis is that it can be very "austere". My interpretation of that is that they can be bone dry, steely, citric, acidic and perhaps lacking in character. If this is the case, then there's no way this wine can be described as "austere". On first opening, there is a strong nose of apple and mineral which continues to the palate with a lengthy lemony finish. As the wine warms slightly, the apples remain but we then got pears and maybe even pineapple as well. The finish remains quite lemony and lengthy. A very nice wine indeed. Very easy to drink with loads of competing flavour. We'd only tried the Petit Chablis prior to this and I had a look at my review which went on about apples and a sort of velvety texture. That texture is still there in the "standard" Chablis, so what\s the difference between the two? Well, it's always hard to answer that type of question when there have been months between tastings, but I'd say that the 'standard" Chablis (i.e. this one) is smoother, fruitier a tad more complex and has a longer finish. Now looking forward to trying my one and only bottle of the "old vine" version. A lovely wine, Sebastien and in my view, well worth the money although it's a bit expensive as an every day "quaffer".

Sun May 20 20:09:59 UTC 2012 at a friends house Beautiful!!! Bone dry just as Chablis should be! Well done naked wines! Fay R. Sat Apr 21 11:53:56 UTC 2012 reviewed this before I think - more fruit and more versatile than the "straight" Chablis. A very good well made and deceptively complex wine. John C. Tue Jun 26 15:52:27 UTC 2012 A good value, fresh Petit Chablis, with plenty of fruit, and a dry finish. Lovely. David C. Sat Mar 17 13:38:48 UTC 2012 at a friends house Not the greatest I have drunk, however for the price this is a great value Chablis, we had it with a fish dish and it was perfect Michael H.

Fri Nov 18 13:41:30 UTC 2011 at a friends house DAWN W. Tue Nov 15 20:59:49 UTC 2011 A good chablis, oaky and buttery flavour, if you prefer cleaner flavour go for the the petit chablis, which personally I prefer. Rachel V. Mon Nov 14 10:00:27 UTC 2011 at a friends house Indistinguishable from a true Chablis with fresh dry mineral quality. I highly recommend this wine with salads or as in my case with vegetarian moussaka. I wanted something that came close to the particularly dry qualities of Turkish White Wine to have with this recipe which is based on an Aubergine dish I had in Turkey. The combination was a great success and shows that you can experiment with varied dishes with Chablis styles. BRIAN M. Fri Nov 11 00:12:50 UTC 2011 Clive K. Sat Jan 14 14:12:49 UTC 2012 at a friends house Jeremy M. I enjoyed this wine, a nice dry Chablis with a yeasty nose, well-balanced fruit flavour and a mineral, dry finish. Tara L. victoria s. Delicious white Owen A. Tue Oct 25 09:42:56 UTC 2011 at a friends house v nice, the "full" not petite chablis also good, I find it hard to chose between them! The petite is smoother but less crisp. david r. Sun Oct 23 11:45:58 UTC 2011 at a friends house Review said it was a fine Chablis and I completely agree. Took it to friends for a special occassion and they were very appreciative. Bit pricey though but you get what you pay for on this one Bridget M. David M.
