I've got some '15 sur lie arriving next week, I'm looking forward to it.

It's just turned up, not sur lie but the same as yours. I can hardly complain at barely more than the price of a pint of beer!

Thanks for the suggestion, an excellent report all the way around.

I was surprised to see that Muscadet still has a poor reputation in France.

the average french buys their wine a carrefour, supermarche, whatever, so yes, their opinion of muscadet will be poor at best. the few that make the good stuff have the american market--or they'd be out of business. these few that make good muscadet are a teensy fraction of the overall production.

i've been told by local french vignerons that the average french person thinks about as much about the wine they buy as they do about bottled water.
