* **Chablis "Blanchot"** (Feb. 2015 – Jul. 2018): 5 btls not oxidized. Still very primary & youthful in 2015; reaching its plateau of drinkability in 2018. Probably better decanted. No traces of "2003" vintage traits (q.v. the comments on 2003 Vaillons). 3 btls purchased from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer in Nov. 2013 + 2 btls purchased from Kermit Lynch in early 2015.

- | * **Chablis "Clos"** (Mar. 2019 – ): 1 btl not oxidized. A gem of a wine from a difficult vintage. Not as much depth or power as in better behaved vintages, but the sweet white flowers in the nose & delicate minerality on the palate are all there. From a lot of 3 purchased in Apr. 2014 from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer. [Rayner Cheung] | + | * **Chablis "Clos"** (Mar. 2019 – ): 2 btls not oxidized.
