The concentrated and dense body takes over and reinforces the impression of substance

as are several other of the wines here in this vintage

Distiller Notes: "Aged 4 to 5 years in new 53 gallon oak barrels and is non-chill filtered

this is a lush and salty-savory

there is a sweet entry

We then insert 10 seared virgin French oak staves into the barrel and finish it for nine weeks in our limestone cellar

"Powerfully ripe yet racy and thrilling with acidity

fresh thyme

In the palate it shows a creamy texture combined with a vibrant freshness and acidity highlighting grapefruit

This is excellent Muscadet and a stunning value

well-spiced finish

there's a good amount of complexity here
