-  * **Chablis "Les Clos"​** (Apr. 2023 – ): 2 btls not oxidized. Only 13% ABV. Decanting optional (after 2024). In Apr. 2023, relatively lean in style, similar to the La Forest. In Mar. 2024, this wine has put on quite a lot of weight & is utterly delicious. A concentrated perfume of white flowers, orchard fruits, & citrus pith welcomes the drinker ​with a firm handshake (cf. Tanzer: "​subtle resiny spices"​). On the palate, a beautiful balance has been struck between the richness of the fruit & a robust core of zesty acidity. ​ 1 btl purchased from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer in Sep. 2015, & a half case more from the same source ​in May 2016.

   * **Chablis "La Forest"​** (Mar. 2021 – ): 9 btls not oxidized. Best decanted. This is a powerful wine that's worthy of the 2010, but is even more closed (as of 2021). Drinking beautifully in May 2022, growing magnificently in the glass. Nearing its peak in Aug. 2023. From 2 lots of 6 purchased from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer in Dec. 2015. [Rayner Cheung]   * **Chablis "La Forest"​** (Mar. 2021 – ): 9 btls not oxidized. Best decanted.
