So, this is drinking nicely. It is fat, in that '09 way, rather more Pezzy than fruity. But it is also mighty good Muscadet, the fruit just a bit yellow and the leesiness is pleasant.

At least, with charcoal-grilled shrimp and olive bread, it is.
 
Funny that he mentions Chablis: I am in the final throes of preparing for my Nordic vacation and I have noticed that many restaurant wine-lists have Chablis for the same price as Muscadet. I guess this says more about the tax structure than about the importation details.
