Chardonnay Wine from France

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: Dramatic aromas of blanched almonds, beeswax, honey and preserved lemon introduce the 2005 Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys, a full-bodied, textural wine that's rich, concentrated and structured, with a tight-knit core, tangy...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2005 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet is more complex than the Vaillon, unfurling with complex aromas of honeycomb, mandarin oil, fresh mushroom, almond paste and oyster shell. On the palate, it's full-bodied, rich and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: The 2005 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillon is drinking beautifully, wafting from the glass with a pretty bouquet of honey, buttered citrus and confit lemon. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and bright, with a...

Wine Spectator, 91 points: A plump version, boasting melon, peach, cinnamon and toasted spice flavors. Balanced by lively acidity, with the spice and peach elements echoing on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2023. 200 cases imported. — BS

Decanter, 94 points: This monopole vineyard of 2.28ha is picked in three tranches over the space of a week to enhance its complexity. Among the Côte de Nuits' best whites, it's pithy, nuanced and well-structured, with very subtle oak...

jebdunnuck.com, 93 points: Bottled under screw cap, the 2017 Meursault offers a crisp, salty bouquet that’s very much in the style of the vintage. White fruits, oysters shell, and crushed citrus notes all emerge from this juicy, medium-bodied, racy...

jebdunnuck.com, 91 points: Coming from 60-year-old vines and brought up in 15% new oak, the 2017 Meursault Les Vieilles Vignes offers a solid bouquet of stone fruits and buttered citrus as well as green almonds and white flowers. Nicely textured...

Vinous, 94 points: (VN 92-94 points) The 2018 Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru is impressive. Rich, pliant and beautifully layered, the Mont de Milieu is one of the highlights in this range. Perfumed aromatics and silky fruit add to its...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: I love the lively and energetic profile of the 2014 L'Etoile Cuvée Spéciale, which is a sharper wine than the 2015 but also less developed and fresher. It feels very young and undeveloped, with bright acidity, strong...

Vinous, 91 points: Pale yellow. Sweet, ripe aromas of yellow plum and oak char, plus a more exotic suggestion of mirabelle. The yellow fruit flavors show good power and penetration, along with an attractive sucrosité that belies the wine's...
