From one of the region's leading sustainable vignerons, this is organic, wild-ferment Muscadet, aged sur lie in earthen vessels, buried in the ground to keep cool and rest (obviously no racking) until the following spring. Light pear, subtle earthy lees, river stone, white florals and a fine vein of saline-laced lemon. Juicy and fresh with lovely tension throughout, cushioned by a gentle pillow of creamy lees and and driven by minerality. Would be a stunner with fresh oysters; a Muscadet that is worth laying down for a couple of years.
