The nose is completely missing. Body is creamy in a not so elegant leesy way. A little cucumber and citrus, decent freshness considering it already has a few years. If you have a bottle, you would perhaps want to consider saving it to see if there is an afterlife for this - at least for now - unexpectedly boring chablis. Did not improve over night either. Surprising as I had the 2009 montee de tonnerre a couple of months ago and it was just shining.

Half bottle drank at dinner. Very nice on its own. Floral and citrus notes. Well balanced with right amount of acidity. Slightly overpowered the oysters though.
