Smells and tastes like salty peach. Becomes more of a salted lemon in a few hours — 6 months ago
Bright and fresh, good minerality. Honeydew, lime and salty air on the nose. Oily texture on the palate, with moderate acidity and fresh stone fruit character. Really nice! — 2 months ago
Such a light wine through and through. Really refreshing, slightly salty. — 7 months ago
Unfortified, aged under flor single vintage and single vineyard Palomino Fino.
Closer to Jura in character than a ‘usual’ solera aged Fino.
Fresh, vibrant, racy. Clearly oxidative with yeasty & chalky notes, dried herbs but also some shy pear. And loads of salt!
On the palate this is crisp, fresh, bone dry and mineral. Powerful yet with nice freshness & balance. Chalky, salty, with some pears wrapped in bacon, olive brine and whiff of chamomile in the long finish.
I was not convinced upon opening and on day 1. The day after this is very, very drinkable. Bring on the tapas!

What a nose! Oyster shell, lemon, chalk, a tiny salty, savoury thing too. The palate is clean, bright, broad and minerally. There is lemon, there is a pinch of salt, there is a powerful ball of a midpalate, and a strong long, powerful finish with lemon, that chalky mouthfeel, that pinch or salt and a superb everlasting smile on my face. What. A. Wine! Best muscadet I have ever had — 8 months ago
The aromatics were typical of a Mediterranean white with flowers and minerality more so than fruit driven. Initially a creaminess to the palate which finishes quite mineral/salty. The saltiness dominates somewhat at the end which finishes bone dry. Following day a great match with fresh Pacific Oysters. — 3 years ago

Unique nose, fruity and salty body. Super yum.
Blend of vermentino (body), marsanne (salt), muscat (nose).
