(at Decanter's June 2017 issue Muscadet with extended lees ageing Panel Tasting, 23 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2029
A well-defined, concentrated nose, augmented by notes of sea shell. A softly textured style with an exquisite harmony between creamy lees, citrus intensity and the stony influence of the vineyard's granite soils. Weighty in the mouth with a pronounced thrust of minerality. An impressive and imposing wine.
