• Christine Havens Likes this wine: 93 points

  April 14, 2015 - 93 Points? I can see you scratching your heads. "Is it really as good as that?" Yes, it is. If I'd have tasted this blind I would have easily mistaken it for a Muscadet or perhaps a well-crafted Pinot Blanc. Lively and charming, the Lieu Dit Melon hails from vines planted in the 1970s in the Santa Maria Valley. Stainless fermented it's fresh and crisp with inviting aromas of peach, white flowers and wet stones. But really it's just beautiful in the mouth, with pitch-perfect acidity tinged with Fleur de Sel. 12.4% ABV
