A background note of pain grillé frames a high-toned and airy white flower nose of dazzling purity and this transparency characterizes the delicious, complex and wonderfully deep flavors that are also blessed with superb dry extract on the opulent and citrus-infused finish...

Pale yellow. High-toned, slightly exotic pineapple aroma-"heavier, like the '06," notes Bernard Raveneau. Fat and oily on the palate but with a very dry impression in spite of its ripe pineapple flavors. Very long and a bit warm on the back end, with a trace of finishing bitterness. In style this is more Cote de Beaune than Chablis. Much broader than the sample I tasted a year ago from barrel. Today, this one strikes me as the oddball among these 2005s.
