Community Tasting Note

  July 25, 2011 - The unmistakable smell of a sur lie wine mingled effortlessly with primary notes of bosc pear, lime and fresh OJ. On the palate, the wine remained quite taut and linear. I dare say one could mistake a great young Muscadet for a terribly young, sinewy and dry German riesling, one without the fat and gristle of so many of its Grosses Gewaechs incarnations. I was most impressed by the finish here–salt, citrus and melon rind–and the aromatic framework, a lattice of lofty Atlantic coast smells, wet stones after a summer storm, and a diminutive sap note that persisted after an hour or so of being open.
