This organic white wine made with Melon de Bourgogne was hand-harvested and spent 7 months on the lees. In the glass, this offers ripe melon, lemon, pear, and white grapefruit aromas with hints of mineral. The medium-bodied palate has a slight spritz with ripe and honeyed flavours of citrus, grapefruit, herbs, and lemon. Acids are crisp and clean, while the mid-palate brings out stony mineral notes that continue through to the finish, with good length. A fine match for oysters, fish, or lobster. Tasted Apr/2019.
Lean, crisp, very citrusy melon from the Loire. Despite the deeper yellow colour, this is fresh and lively. Not for people who want a fruity white, as JS says, this is more for fans of minerally, crisp whites. Fine value for the money for sure. Tasted july 2019.
