Oct 1st, 2018Nothing crazy, but exactly what Muscadet should be.. bright, lime zest, minerals, a touch of cream but more just refreshment factor. Nice wine and varietally correct.

Aug 27th, 2018Whoa ....VERY acidic wine from the Loire Valley. This is the first Muscadet I've ever had and needless to say, it sure left a lasting impression. There was not a lot of fruit on the nose, but on the palate was very citrusy(i.e. lime & lemon), green apple, sea salt, and yeasty or bread-like taste that lingers on the finish. I had this wine by itself, but definitely should be served with salty seafood or food with vinegar-based sauces due to the high acidity. According to my wine guide, this is a cooler vintage as a warm vintage would have more yellow apple, star fruit, green mango, and other tropical fruits. "Sur Lie", I have come to learn, is the process where wine is aged on dead yeast particles for a period of time. Cheers to exploring new wines! 😁🇫🇷🍷
