CHABLIS 1er Cru Côte de Léchet Domaine Denis Pommier 2023

Aged in 50% wood. A hint of the exotic suffuses the ripe and fresh white orchard fruit aromas where added breadth is present in the form of quinine, spice and a whiff of iodine. There is good tension to the medium-bodied flavors that possess a bit more mid-palate density and richness while displaying slightly better depth and persistence on the balanced, clean and dry finale where a hint of minerality slowly emerges. One to consider.
