Domaine des Cognettes 2012 Les 2 Terres Sur Lie (Muscadet Sèvre et Maine)

Country: France / Les 2 Terres Sur Lie
Variety: Melon Loire Valley
Winery: Domaine des Cognettes / Muscadet Sèvre et Maine

In the ongoing debate about how well Muscadet can age, this wine gives a good answer: yes it can. There is no sign of the fruit declining; in fact it seems to have become richer and fuller. The texture has softened to give a smooth, creamy wine that is still bright, although very ready to drink.
