Straw. Stone fruit, yeasty fresh croissant nose. Medium acid, citrus, briny finish. Lovely Bourgogne. Had with a nice soft cheese from the same region.

This pours deep straw in the glass. The nose is just beautiful from the first pop expressive and complex. Aromas are of green plum, peach blossom, pastry, crushed chalk, and touches of oyster shell and yogurt. The palate is nicely textured with notable roundness while maintaining precise acid, which is medium plus. The finish is impressively long showing peach yogurt alongside chalk. All in all this is yet another fabulous showing from l’ecu. What a lovely and tidy little wine. Every sip thoroughly enjoyable and really not much in the way of flaws or drawbacks. Love this producer!

Light hay. Nose was fruity with some minerality that's typical of Muscadets. After 30-60 minutes of air it acquired some saltiness. Overall it was the least favorite wine of the group.

Less citrus and sea-spray, more like hay on the nose, quite an austere mouthful, not really fruity, a little lemon but not up to other Muscadets tasted recently from Bonnet-Huteau and Pepière. Quite enjoyable in a dry, not all that expressive style, but no star. OK for 10 euros but I've had better for less.

Pale lemon; classic bouquet, saline+; bone dry, crisp acidity, correct profile, balanced; finishes well.
