May 30, 2011 - Quite intense fruit on the nose with possibly some notes of melon on the palate at first. Fairly full bodied in the mouth with the fruitiness even giving way to an almost pear drop-like sweetness behind a refreshing but not overpowering acidity. Some notes of sherry/oxidation in the finish probably due to relative maturity of the wine.
Interesting to drink a predominantly Chasselas-based wine from the Loire as only ever drank Swiss Chasselas before and based on this I look forward to repeating the experience
