(at Decanter's June 2017 issue Muscadet with extended lees ageing Panel Tasting, 23 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2026
Marked nose of elderflower and nettle heightened by a fine-boned minerality. Breezy, elegant yet mouth-filling with a very composed layer of orchard fruit culminating in a long, pithy, energetic finish; very good indeed.
