2015 Michel Delhommeau Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Sur Lie Cuvée Harmonie

This was a solid muscadet that (I thought) rivaled the base pepiere. Terrific clarity of fruit and fantastic zip. The acidity was well integrated and I just found it really an enjoyable wine. My wife, for what it is worth, found it a bit tart, but I think that's the nature of the wine-- it had plenty of fruit to stand up to the acid.

This, I did not enjoy. I've loved Joven Riojas in the past for their freshness. This wine had minimal acidity and came off as fairly heavy. The wine had a extracted feel to it and the flavors were of rubber and stewed fruit.

This, unsurprisingly, tastes better now than it did in 2010. Much more integrated. Seemingly straddles the line between ripe and lean -- surpasses my expectations for what I was told was a wine from "an average chateau and a less than stellar vintage." Minimal tannin left but good acidity. No rush on this wine. From 375.
