(at Decanter's June 2017 issue Muscadet with extended lees ageing Panel Tasting, 23 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2018 - 2025
A more pungent style, minerally and intense. The palate imparts a really fine weight and substance, with a crunchy mineral vein, as well as incisive acidity to fuel the lip-smacking finish.
