Lower acid than usual for a Chablis, but still yummy

What an odd bottle if Chablis- tons of minerality on the finish, but a nose dominated by botrytis. This was very good with the crab, but so effusive in its apricoty, honeyed exoticism.

A delightfully flavored white—light and satisfying. Pairs nicely with a cheese and cracker appetizer.

A light, bright, low acid Chablis. Nothing too remarkable but it paired nicely with some shrimp and rice pilaf.

Memorable only in as much as it resembles something from the Mâconnais much more than Chablis. And not in an exciting way. Minimal acidity, round in the mouth, even a tiny, tiny bit buttery. The more I drink it, the less I like it. Score adjusted accordingly.
