2014 Jean-Paul Droin Chablis Fourchaume

Pale yellow-green. Aromas of pineapple, flowers and anise suggest high acidity. Then tight on the palate, with slightly streaky acidity that still needs time to be digested. Shows a bit less flavor development than the Mont de Milieu and finishes with a faint tannic edge. This wine began in 50% oak, a bit of it new, which was the highest percentage among Droin`s premier crus in 2014. 89-91 points

This is also ever-so-mildly exotic but with a plethora of Chablis character that continues onto the caressing medium weight flavors that possess both good extract and minerality, all wrapped in an acceptably complex and lingering finish that curiously is borderline off dry. 89-91 points
