  April 8, 2021 - Deeelish. Seems a fleshier and fruitier muscadet but still with great salty, minerals.

  March 5, 2021 - Even though I usually assign point ratings to wine, it doesn't make sense to do that for this bottle. In the larger context of wine, it doesn't really deserve a particularly high score: it is aromatically muted, it has a single flavor -- slightly nutty applesauce -- and it is unlikely to evolve significantly with more bottle age. On the other hand, this wine is delicious, and completely satisfying, the acidity is present but well-balanced, the wine provided an excellent accompaniment to our dinner (an alpine mix of potatoes, bacon, and cheese), and for $16, it is a great wine.

  November 8, 2020 - Bright and fresh on the nose, with fruit aromas of lemon and lime, plus maybe a touch of kiwi. There's also a floral prickle, like the smell in the air on a spring day when everything is blooming. And finally, a hint of salty sea breeze. On the palate, it's delightful. Actually a bit more rounded and generous than the nose led me to expect, as the bright lemony citrus—of which there is still plenty—is joined by a sweeter, more exotic aspect that reminds me of kiwi and mango. The freshness of the salinity is still there, too, as is the floral/herbal character, and it's all stitched nicely together in elegant balance. As a complete package, it's really enjoyable, plenty interesting and expressive, and tremendous value.
