Forty Ounce Muscadet 2016 Review

While straightforward and acid-driven, this Muscadet is a great example of the simple pleasures that the appellation can provide. Hints of citrus and rocky minerality come forth on the subtle nose, while a blast of lemony acidity pleasantly assaults the palate upon first sip. A dash of sea salt accompanies the tart fruit, giving way to a clean finish.
