Domaine de L'Olivier 2009 Sur Lie Melon (Muscadet Sèvre Et Maine)
-
$16
Not all Muscadet is for instant drinking, and this wine could do with some aging. It is tight and firm, with a mineral, almost chalky texture, very crisp, but dominated by lemon juice crispness. Keep for a year.

Domaine de L'Olivier 1999 Chardonnay (Languedoc)

$8
An unusual but pleasant blend of creamy-mallow and lime notes on the nose segues into similar light, creamy and citrusy notes on the palate and on the finish. Medium-bodied and round in the mouth.

Domaine de L'Olivier 2003 Chardonnay (Vin de Pays d'Oc)
-
$7
Slightly nutty and plywoody on the nose, partially redeemed by a plump mouthfeel. Flavors tend toward unripe pear and grapefruit.
