Tasted by:
(at Decanter's June 2017 issue Muscadet with extended lees ageing Panel Tasting, 23 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2020
A smoky, crushed-mineral character on the nose, enriched by notes of brioche and honey. The palate feels convincing and dense, with a smoky minerality, and tension too. It has a long, graceful, saline mineral character on the finish. Impressive!
