The 2019 Chablis Butteaux 1er Cru has a tightly wound, backward nose, quite earthy at first, then developing scents of Granny Smith apples and flint with time in the glass. The medium-bodied palate delivers fine acidity that cuts through the rich citrus fruit, along with touches of white peach and a tang of quince. Lightly spiced and quite persistent toward the saline finish. Excellent.’ 90 points, Neal Martin, Vinous.
