The 2021 Chablis Les Pargues has turned out very well, offering up aromas of orange zest, lemon oil, beeswax, clear honey and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a satiny attack, racy acids and a long, saline finish, it will delight classicists.

The 2021 Chablis Les Pargues took a while to open in the glass, fine delineation with crushed stone and touches of pressed flowers. The palate is well balanced with a crisp opening, lime and freshly sliced pear; a touch of lemongrass livens up the finish. Give this a year in bottle.
