Robert Parker describes the tasting notes of the Chablis Premier Cru Forêts 2014: “Tasted blind at the Burgfest annual tasting, the 2014 Chablis 1er Cru Forêts from Pinson has quite an extravagant bouquet with scents of guava and passion fruit, although it manages to retain the essence of Chablis with slate-like aromas underneath. The palate is fresh on the entry with very fine balance, well-judged acidity, harmonious and tensile with just a touch of mandarin on the exit. This is a very well-crafted Chablis that appeared to keep on improving in the glass. Bon vin/Bon Chablis”.
