Cornflower yellow; classic, iodine, saline, crushed rock; whilst retaining plenty of zip this has broadened out; fully mature.Very long indeed. Perfect with mussels.

White flowers, melon, with an underlying current of stone. The wet concrete description is weird, but there's a hint of it there. Acid was there but did not overwhelm. Much "rounder" wine that expected from a Muscadet but makes sense with the vintage. Had with dinner on day 3 and the fruit was a little fleshier and still very enjoyable. Wife approved, so bonus points.

Bright, expressive nose. Minerals coming out later after initial herbaceousness. Juicy and rich still. At least in terms of Muscadet. Dry finish and a bit round. I think this could have use more acidity but they clearly got some nicely expressive fruit. Good but not exactly classic for the type.

This showed much better than a 2009 Briords last week. Good acid, some fruit, minerality. Very much alive and well.
