Salty, anchovies, ground pepper on the nose. Citrus, grapefruit, great minerality on the palate. Very refreshing

More texture than Amphibolite, "Sur Lie" as usual gives the wine more texture and complexity - a touch of seaside notes and citrus - a great value for money 😉

A true to type Muscadet. 2012 is relatively full bodied, crispy nose and sensual taste. Love it.

Searing acids, saline. I still think MdB is one of the greatest grapes. But not greater then Riesling
