Discover the grape variety: Bouteillan
Simple, fresh, low-aromatic whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and discreet aromas of citrus and white flowers. A discreet rustic Provençal profile. Almost absent from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE ampelographic collections for its heritage value, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the Provençal vineyard. An indigenous Provençal white grape, once grown in Provence and the South-East.

The word of the wine: Burgundy melon
A white grape variety from Burgundy that is not widely used in its native region, but has spread to the Nantes region. It is the exclusive variety of Muscadet. It gives a dry pale yellow wine, supple and lively, with an intense bouquet, to which maturing on lees gives fatness and aromatic complexity.
