"Served blind, the 2001 Chablis 1er Cru La Forest stood out for its atypical nose, lent an exotic glaze by the botrytis so typical of this vintage in Chablis. Notes of burnt orange, wheat toast, honey and preserved lemon precede an intense, vibrant wine with lovely intensity, a bright line of acidity and a taut, electric finish."
