Impeccable bottle. Very light in the glass at 21 years old. Earthy nose of caramelized walnuts, roasted pear, truffles, and still a hint of salinity. Yet, very full and expansive on the palate--keeps changing in the glass. Excellent

Lively and fresh for its age. Brothy rocky lemon nose that opens up with an hour or so of air, maybe a slight petrol smell also. Excellent version of aged Muscadet.

Pretty saturated cork, but still a decent pop to the extraction. Immature color belied by the nose. Rather watery. With two hours of air time, the wine took on color, and a ton of weight, resembling a village level Chablis. Warm midpalate fruit, dry as dust finish.
