Tasted by:
(at Decanter's June 2017 issue Muscadet with extended lees ageing Panel Tasting, 23 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2026
Rich, evolved style from long lees aging, with overt acacia and honeysuckle aromas. Serious, intensely flavoured and beautifully textured with creamy citrus and orchard fruit notes wrapped around a firm minerally vein; certain to age gracefully.
