-  * **Chablis "​Blanchot"​** (Nov. 2021 – ): btls not oxidized, of which 1 corked. The good btls were pale gold & had an exquisite perfume. Delicate & delicious, this was an unusually refined example of this cuvée. Can't wait to try the Valmur & the Clos. From a parcel of 6 purchased c. 2009 from a reputable retailer in Hong Kong.

   * **Chablis "​Vaillons"​** (Jun. 2017, Apr. 2021): 2 btls not oxidized. 2017 – Lovely nose of white flowers. Vigorous on the palate. 2021 – Excellent color. Quite reticent in the nose & on the palate. Probably should have been decanted. From 2 btls purchased at a reputable retailer in Hong Kong circa 2009.

-  * **Chablis "​Valmur"​** (Apr. 2023 – ): 1 btl not oxidized. Healthy ​& youthful ​color of pale gold. Hugely complex in the nose & on the palate. Enormous depth & concentration to the multi–layered flavors of green fruit citrus. A more relaxed wine because of better acid balance than certain other great vintages like the 1996 & 2002. From a lot of 6 purchased in Aug. 2016 from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer. [Rayner Cheung]+  * **Chablis "​Valmur"​** (Apr. 2023 – ): 3 btls not oxidized.
