Wine Enthusiast, 90 Points 

"This is the riper, richer side of Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie. This wine has an aromatic nose of golden apple, white peach, brioche, dried blossom and marmalade. On the palate, it is slightly creamy in texture with a midpalate of ripe fruit and hints of baking spice." 

Winemaker Notes:

"This vineyard has a rather unusual terroir as the subsoil is comprised of the volcanic rock gabbro, covered by a 40 cm-thick layer of clay. This unusual soil gives the wines distinctive minerality and lemony notes.  The terroir brings finesse and elegance to this wine.  Fresh, lemony nose with notes of gunflint. Powerful, mineral-driven palate. Very long finish. Ripeness and roundness, with excellent balance." 

Alcohol: 12%
