This seldom-seen 1er Cru is in the commune of Chichee, East of the town of Chablis, on the south side of the river Surein. There is little clay in the soil here, but lots of small pebbles. It is a relatively cold site, but faces South, on three sides of a small valley, so produces wines of drive and energy. This has energy, minerality, lots of presence and terrific length and minerality on the finish, the hallmark of the vintage. (Keith Wollenberg, K&L Burgundy Buyer) 90 Points Burghound: "While the components of the nose are quite similar to those of the straight Chablis, there is considerably more depth and this complexity carries over to the round, rich and generous yet vibrant middle weight flavors that possess good cut and punch on the moderately austere finish. This is really quite good with plenty of Chablis character in evidence." (Burghound 10/11)
