A taut and mineral wine, with intense acidity followed by peach flavors. The wine successfully manages to combine a crisp edge and rich fruit, with delicious results. ——R.V.(12/15/2010)—— 90

Ripe apple and peach aromas are numbed by a heavy mineral note. Generic but very pleasant flavors of citrus, melon and white pepper do the trick. Stony and crisp, and clear as polished glass on the finish. Just not terribly complex, however. Imported by Weygandt-Metzler. ——W.E.(7/1/2005)—— 88

The tight bouquet tosses off a touch of mustard seed, lemon and lees. The mouth is full and round, bordering on plump. There is pineapple and mango to the sweet-fruit finish, and it goes down easily. It’s the quintessential ready-to-drink Loire white. ——W.E.(8/1/2002)—— 90
