Summer Picnic wines (Luneau-Papin, Merkelbach, Sineann): Drank before an outdoor concert of the Cleveland Orchestra with non-geeks. What a great white wine and great value. Crushed shells and sea air on the nose. Minerality galore. Smooth and great with food. Interesting and delicious. Great finish. Lovely wine.

90+; Light gold color with pear and a lime citrus on the nose with the same flavors. A flavor perceived as saline but not sure where that comes from. Balanced with an interesting oily texture overlaying an acidic frame. Under $20 and a great buy.

Stunning nose of pear, wet stones, citrus, and toasted coconut. Medium-bodied, with a long, racy finish. Best Muscadet I've ever had.
