Tasting notes

Straw colour. Fine nose of seaweed, sur lie-character, flowers and mineral. Fullbodied Muscadet in the mouth. Pure,fresh and acidic style. Lot of sur lie-character. Lot of seaweed and mineral on the palate. Good concentration. Some aged complexity, but still feel rather young and fresh. Good length and a great wine for seafood. Tremendous Muscadet, one of the best I have tasted. The '89 is better than bothe the '93 and '96 available here in Norway.
