2020 Droin, Jean Paul & Benoit Chablis 1er Montee de Tonnerre

A cool, pure and elegant nose freely offers up airy aromas of citrus rind, white flowers, iodine and plenty of smoky mineral reduction. Here too there is very good volume and delineation to the focused and intense middle weight flavors that are at once caressing but punchy on the saline, youthfully austere and impeccably well-balanced finale. Good stuff and worth considering.  Burghound 91-94 Sweet Spot Outstanding!

The 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is a particular success this year, delivering aromas of pear and peach mingled with notions of nutmeg, freshly baked bread, white flowers and mint. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and multidimensional, it's a satiny, seamless wine with excellent concentration and a long, expansive finish.  William Kelley 94
