2001 William Fevre Chablis Champs Royaux

[wondersofwine]

Had a glass of this at Black Olive Restaurant (Greek food) in Fells Point section of Baltimore. (Hey, Drew, I survived the traffic mess in downtown Bal'more on the 4th of July evening, but did nearly run a red light right in front of a police car. I was concentrating on getting into the left lane to pick up 95 South and almost didn't spot the red light. The police car braked in case I entered the intersection and I stopped just in time.)

Now, the chablis: 12.5% alcohol
Nose of tart apple and pear. Taste: lots of mouth presence; crisp and pleasant with a slight pucker factor, tasting of green apple, pear. Not too flinty as I find some Chablis to be. Had with calamari stuffed with warm herbed Feta cheese and small Greek salad. Liked the calamari stuffing better than the calamari. After another experience with grilled calamari in Charleston, SC, I've decided I like deep-fried Calamari (Monterey style) but not the grilled.

Attended two Orioles games--they won one and lost one. Temps were in the 90's. Drank lots of water at both games.
