  Medium lemon colour. Medium nose with yellow apples, lemon, honey, wet stones and cream. Medium taste of yellow apples, lemon, honey, cream and wet stones. Long and dry finish. Medium (+) acidity. Medium body. A very good Muscadet that has great potential for further ageing. Goes well with fish or shellfish.

  12% alcohol.
  
  Pale whitish-green color. Somewhat restrained and slightly underwhelming nose with aromas of golden apples, some zesty citrus fruits, a little bit of leesy yeast, light reductive rubber tones, hints of fresh white fruits and a touch of sweeter peachy character. The wine is dry, medium-bodied and crisp on the palate with youthful flavors of fresh white fruits, some crunchy quince, a little bit of tangy salinity, light candied notes of gummi bears, a hint of apple peel bitterness and a leesy touch of yeast. The overall feel is quite of the ripe and fruity, but the high acidity keeps the wine very fresh, precise and light on its feet. The finish is dry, crisp and lively with bright, quite long flavors of saline minerality, crunchy quince, some sweet golden apples, a little bit of steely minerality and a bitter hint of apple peel and chalk dust.
  
  A fresh, harmonious and tasty Muscadet. The overall feel is quite ripe for a Muscadet, yet the wine doesn't feel any softer or heavier than a leaner or cooler Muscadet would, only the fruit feels slightly sweeter and a bit more to the fore. Pleasant and well-made stuff, most likely will continue to develop for many more years.
