Smoky pear and lemon-scented, ripe and textured, with laser-like mineral freshness, this is magnificent 94-point Grand Cru Chablis. It's from Lyne Marchive's superb estate, and from an excellent vintage. Fabulous now and for years to come!

Lyne Marchive’s 27-hectare domaine is one of the best in Chablis, making some of the most consistently outstanding wines. When she started out, Lyne planned to take a place at wine school in Beaune, but discovering she would be the only girl, she decided simply to learn 'on the job'. She’s assisted by Guénolé Breteaudeau, who grew up in the Loire Valley, itself a hotbed of the purest, linear-fresh French whites. Together they produce absolute classic Chablis, full of the seashell and mineral character that devotees search for, alongside green apple and intense lemon elegance. From this superb 9-hectare Grand Cru, this is a beautifully chiselled white, part fermented in old oak for texture, it will age for years. Open early and decant.
