The wine region of Muscadet-Coteaux de la Loire
Muscadet sub-appellation (1936, 189 ha, 24 communes) upstream from Nantes along the Loire: 100% Melon de Bourgogne on steep slopes of Armorican Massif bedrock - gneiss, granite, mica schists and green rocks. Pale with green tints, tonic and powerful whites with a signature accentuated minerality. Nose of citrus, white flowers, iodine and saline notes, lively taut palate. Unique microclimate on the Loire slopes, aged on lees.
The word of the wine: Water stress
Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
