It's got what you came for in a Chablis, for the most part, but it finishes a little short.

Delightful. Light sharpness to it, lemon and apple.

A whiff of vanilla and blanched almond together with pear and ripe citrus notes indicate good fruit selection and clever oak treatment here. Sadly it falls short on the palate where misplaced bitterness dominate, covering the fruit. Thankfully it has a short finish.

Chablis paired with grilled king crab legs. The pairing is better than the individual components of the sum.
