-  * **Chablis "​Blanchot"​** (Jul. 2017 – ): 3 btls not oxidized. Still in its adolescence in 2017/2018; reaching its optimum ​in early 2020. More citrus peel & fruit stones in the nose than white flowers. Charming & delicious ​to taste. From a lot of 4 purchased in Nov. 2015 from Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant (library release by the domaine). [Rayner Cheung]+  * **Chablis "​Blanchot"​** (Jul. 2017 – ): 3 btls not oxidized.

   * **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 – ): btls not oxidized. A gem of a wine from a difficult vintage. Best decanted. Not as much depth or power as in more regular vintages, but there are sweet white flowers in the nose, together with delicate minerality & surprisingly colorful texture on the palate. 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 – Apr. 2020): btls not oxidized.
