Sèvre Et Maine, Pays Nantais
Château de L'Oiseliniere
Le Clos Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine Melon de Bourgogne
A Muscadet that ages very well. Clean and acidic but with a warm glow at the end. Lots of flavour and interest at modest alcohol. We enjoyed with chicken and rice. Will buy again. — 4 months ago

@Ira Schwartz, they are still producing, but I have learned from the importer that this vintage was apparently their pinnacle, a unicorn I suppose, I have myself tried a few other vintages and they’re not anywhere near this level (sadly).
@Doug Powers I very much appreciate the details , thank you
This is amazing. I’m cellaring three Pays Nantais Muscadets right now but never imagined the grape could run this long.

Degustation with Delectable friend Byron Hewett and his wife Paulina at Restaurant Dan Arnold in Brisbane. This was the first matching wine, a Muscadet from the Loire Valley. Fresh and grapey. No oak influence, low acid Must drink more Muscadet in the warmer months. — 4 months ago

I liked this quite a bit.
So did I. Must buy some Muscadet.

This wine has almost no coloring. Its nose is more herb-driven than mineral-driven, but there is a touch of wet sidewalk in the aromas. The palate is dry and rather flat, with only a hint of acidity. As with the smells, the flavors lean into the herbal side of the spectrum with enough minerals to make it a decent pair with shellfish. It is a pleasant enough wine, and for $7 I will not complain beyond this paragraph. I will, however, keep it in mind for when I need a dry white wine for cooking. — 10 days ago
