This is a 4th generation 23 hectare organic estate located at the temperate Atlantic end of the Loire Valley, near the city of Nantes. The Pays Nantais region benefits from a cool maritime climate with cool springs, warm and humid summers allowing Melon de Bourgogne to reach maximum expression.

This is a 4th generation 23 hectare organic estate located at the temperate Atlantic end of the Loire Valley, near the city of Nantes. The Pays Nantais region benefits from a cool maritime climate with cool springs, warm and humid summers allowing Melon de Bourgogne to reach maximum expression.

The vineyards rest on the gneiss and mica-schist soils that are the best of the region.

The grapes are gently  pressed. Then, the fermentation started in thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks. The wine is aged on lees for several months to gather texture and complexity.

Grape: 100% Melon de Bourgogne

Tasting Note: Subtle notes of greengage, preserved lemon touched with the saline Atlantic breeze and a brisk, mineral finish but with a lovely creamy textural note on the mid-palate.

Food Match: Ideal with a plate of oysters or sushi and sashimi.

 

Closure: Cork

Farming Practices: Organic - Contains Sulfites
