Wow, real knockout stuff. This is not domestic Muscadet - there's not much in common besides the grape. It has the bright, pure fruit but it is put together in a much fuller style, more like a white Burgundy (minus the oak) than Muscadet. I don't say Chablis because while it's an intensely mineral wine and cranked up to 11 in that department, it's not a marine minerality. The mineral element here is volcanic (and so is the soil), bringing to mind all those cliches about aromas bursting from the glass and so forth, and it's every bit as driving on the palate. — 10 years ago

Very solid! Almost soft grapey cab minus the tannins. No complex spicy second note, but great finish. Had this at a restaurant, not sure on the bottle price, but big fan. — 9 years ago

Tangerine and mandarin oranges with some light minerality and some nice soft, creamy edges. Medium-minus complexity, but what's there has great texture and acidity. — 9 years ago
Medium minus garnet. Forest floor, cherry, raspberry, misty, basil, feather. Medium acidity, medium sugar. — 9 years ago

Delicious wine. Benefits greatly from decanting. Firm pleasurable tannins. This wine is a keeper and in 3-4 years will be amazing. Rating the wine where it is now. Will buy more bottles to lay down.👍🏼 — 9 years ago
