"The 2022 Montlouis-sur-Loire Clos Michet is a seductive, charming style with a silken texture initially‡you can't help but be sucked in by it. And yet, it has surprising freshness and line with just 12.5% alcohol, tying it all together as it moves through the palate. Salty and floral notes join pastry and subtle smoky bacon, while oak tones linger on the finish. This is smart, pure and well-made."
