Other Reviews....
As is usually the case this is notably more elegant than the straight Chablis with its nose of pretty citrus, honeysuckle and dried apricot. There is good energy and better detail to the round and delicious flavors that possess more volume while terminating in an equally sappy finish that offers good if not genuinely special complexity but lovely persistence.

The 2013 Chablis 1er Cru Fôrets has a very attractive, pine needle-tinged bouquet with a subtle mineral element (wet limestone) in the background. The palate is fresh on the entry with crisp acidity, clearly a level up from the village cru, with hints of shaved ginger flourishing toward the finish. This is showing nicely. There is something nonchalant about this Fôrets, although it needs perhaps just another year in bottle.

Pale, bright yellow. Stone fruits and oyster shell on the nose. Supple, sweet and fruity, showing a bit more grip than the village wine but still in an essentially soft style. Drinkable now for its ripe stone fruit flavors.
