A shade less impressive than the 2002. Lacks aromatics but tasty with neat salinity and provocative lingering finish. Twenty bucks. Coolio.

"more than a decade of age has lent this 2005 a deep golden yellow hue though there are no signs of Browning whatsoever at the rim...the fruit component is a tangy mix of yellow apple, pear, peach pit…" - Ian Cauble

Showing major exuberance and huge aromatics, despite age and a full decade on the lees. Acidity is super well balanced, with lower than average salinity for Muscadet. Love it.

Still a solid Muscadet but my least favourite of a long night!! Too rich and too full for a muscadet

Very well balanced... great body.. not too aromatic, not too acidic, fresh although aged for 10 years... I think time gives it that nice smooth body and takes away all those young aromas and acidity.. the finish is just fantastic.. long and just balanced... goes well with a creamy pasta sauce or mushrooms
