Magnum. Light yellow green. Penetrating nose of citrus and sea breeze. As before, a little more textural than typical Muscadet. Brisk, tart citrus fruit and a long, stony finish. This provided much more than $30 worth of drinking pleasure, which was the modest price of this big bottle. Despite coming from a relatively riper vintage, this could certainly go on for a while, at least in this format.

Richer vintage, but still mineral, citrus, yeast, just over a riper, bigger frame. Excellent acidity and a tremendous value at $11 or so. Tremendous even after several days of air.
