Chardonnay Wine from France

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2006 Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys is showing beautifully, offering up inviting aromas of pear, honeycomb, mandarin oil, warm bread and oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with an enveloping core of...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (93+points) The 2006 Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet is a superb example of the vintage, offering up aromas of citrus oil, beeswax and oyster shell complemented by subtle hints of clear honey. Medium to full-bodied, satiny...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The most generous and demonstrative of Defaix's premiers crus in this vintage, the 2006 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillon offers up a lovely nose of clear honey, Meyer lemon, beeswax, oyster liquor and verbena. Medium to...

Decanter, 95 points: Enticing candied citrus fruit and spice with an exquisite mineral undertone; super clean and tense with a sumptuous texture and a long, harmonious finish.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: (90 - 92 points) One of the highlights of the range is the 2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly, a lovely wine that offers up aromas of pear, waxy citrus rind, white flowers and crushed chalk. On the palate, it's medium to...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: Notes of yeast, chalk, ripe Amalfi lemon peel and white summer blossom unite into a seductive, creamy nose on this wine. Toasty, oaky smoke also hovers but is beautifully subdued. The palate also encompasses these notions...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: The gentle nose on this wine combines the slight flintiness of reduction with ethereal dried yarrow. The palate is multi-dimensional with yeast, lemon, chalk and saltiness. Subtle texture and scented freshness are...

Decanter, 97 points: This comes from two parcels, facing east and south-west, respectively, making a very tidy 2.5ha in total. Showing the delicate touch of one of the very best winemakers in Chablis, this is a saline, focused, wonderfully...

Burghound, 92 points: (90-92 points) Aromatically this is similar to the regular cuvée with two exceptions, which are that the mildly exotic aromas are riper and are trimmed in enough wood to merit mentioning. As is always the case there is...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Buttery peach, pear and oak spice flavors hold your attention as this fleshy white unfolds on the palate. There is just the right amount of acidity to keep this focused and long, showing subtle butterscotch and mineral on...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: What a beautiful white with many fine, intertwined layers of fruit and acidity, delivering such a serious and subtle glass. It’s medium-to full-bodied with creamy texture and a flavorful finish. Really intriguing and...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: Cooling, mossy chalkiness plays on this wine's nose, despite the heat of 2018. The palate then displays juicy roundness in the form of ripe, yellow pear pervading chalky depth. Rich lemon-peel notes create contour and add...

Decanter, 95 points: This isn’t strictly speaking a domaine wine from Joseph Drouhin, but the contract with the Marquis de Laguiche is so long that it might as well be. Showing impressive concentration, yeasty, textured weight, delightful 25%...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: Subtle smoke wraps itself around light notions of ripe Mirabelle on this wine's nose. Gentleness also defines the palate where well-captured ripeness is met with smoothest texture and a little smokiness, all illuminated...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Pretty and demonstrative, among Fèvre's grand cru bottlings, the 2018 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir is second only to the Bougros in expressiveness. Bursting with aromas of pear, white flowers, orange oil and citrus blossom...

Decanter, 95 points: The pick of Domaine de Montille's impressive range of white Premiers Crus in 2018, this is a stylish rendition of what many people consider Meursault's best terroir. Pear, apple and citrus fruit flavours are embellished...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: This white is elegant and lacy, featuring lime blossom, acacia and hazelnut accents, surrounding white peach and melon fruit. Harmonious and vibrant, builds to a long, citrus and spice-infused aftertaste. Drink now...

Decanter, 95 points: Les Vergers is located on the northern side of Chassagne-Montrachet close to the large limestone quarry. The domaine's 1ha holding has produced a stunning Premier Cru in 2018 which combines richness and palate weight with...

Burghound, 93 points: (90-93 points) Once again the expressive nose is decidedly floral with prettier and more layered aromas of exotic tea, spice and plenty of citrus influences. The racy, intense and overtly stony medium weight flavors also...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: There are 13,000 bottles of Cognard's delicious 2017 Montagny 1er Cru Les Bassets, a pretty wine that wafts from the glass with scents of honeysuckle, peaches and pears. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny...

Decanter, 93 points: From one of the several Moreau estates – Louis is the cousin of Fabien, and there is no longer any connection with J Moreau & Fils. This is fresh, light and lemony on the nose, and elegant and stony on the palate, with a...

Burghound, 94 points: (91-94 points) Discreet wood serves as a relatively neutral backdrop for the cool, elegant and airy aromas of ripe white orchard fruit, spice and floral scents. A notably more refined palate feel is present on the...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 points: The 2017 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Le Charmois reveals pretty aromas of pear, fresh peach, white flowers, blanched almonds and wet stones. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, racy and precise, with more tension and cut...
