There’s no doubt in our minds that some wines — especially, simple but cheap and delicious bottlings – are best appreciated when enjoyed like a regular drink (e.g., beer), without much analysis.
The Château la Touche Muscadet, a completely dry white from the Loire Valley’s western end, is most definitely one of these wines. While nothing fancy, its light body and excellent structural quality made it extraordinarily pleasing to kick back with while watching a bit of evening TV the other night, and its flavors of peach and lime were easy to enjoy.
This one’s a true crowd-pleaser and a no-brainer at $13.
Where to get it: We bought our bottle at Plumpjack Wines in Noe Valley. They ship. You can also find it using the Snooth search function under “Wine Locator” in the right hand column of this page, or by visiting wine-searcher.com or winezap.com.
