2024★★★★★Drink earlyA brutal year of frost, hail, flooding and mildew. The little fruit that survived shows taut, bracing character but quantities are catastrophic.
2023★★★★★Drink earlyA large, ripe, juicy crop with balance but softer acidity. Drink-now appeal rather than long-aging structure.
2022★★★★HoldEarly harvest in a warm year delivered fresh, lively, juicy Chablis with structure for medium-to-long aging.
2021★★★★★HoldApril frost cut yields by half. A return to cool-climate, high-acid classicism with taut, mineral-driven wines built to age.
