Pretty Muscadet. At first seemed a little thin but opened up splendidly and filled with bright apple, citrus, seashells and minerals. Open in advance or give a few more years.

Hell, if there's another $25 original retail price wine that will age as well as this at 14, I'll eat my hat. Bright, fresh, crisp, a little savory and long, long, long. My last bottle, and better than every one before it over the last decade or so. It wouldn't surprise me if this continued to get better (though better seems arbitrary at this point), but I'm pretty dang pleased to have opened this now.

From magnum - lemon zest, salinity and pear - tastes like the beach.

Muscadet ages so gracefully. (@Scott Torrence knows but @Richard Young doesn't). This was awesome.
