The 2014 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux has a thrilling bouquet with intense mineralité and tension; the terroir is articulated beautifully here, the nose instantly transporting you to the hills of Chablis. The palate is very intense (again) with a fine acidity, great tension, citrus-fresh with a poised and lively finish that just needs a little more persistence on the aftertaste. If that develops in bottle, then it will unequivocally warrant a higher score. The Wine Advocate #226 - August 2016.
