Default Chablis 1997 Dom Chantemerle

Hello,
With my version of Moules marinie
Color is surprisingly light considering the realtively high age.
Nose overflows with carambole, I find some very slight oxidative notes.
On palate, acidity is fairly restrained for a Chablis. There is a
minerality, even a saltiness. Very good and almost opulent body. To my mind,
this wine is at its apex and we will drink the remaineing bottles during the
next 12 months.
Excellent with shellfish.

Cheers

Nils
