|---|---|
| Appellation | Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur lie |

| Terroir | This vineyard has a rather unique terroir as its subsoil is comprised of a volcanic rock called gabbro, covered with a 40cm layer of clay. |
| Winemaking methods | This wine is matured on its lees. Lees are the natural deposit formed by the solid particles in the wine over the winter. After alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wine rests on its lees all winter until bottling at the end of March. |
| Tasting | This dry and fruity Muscadet is made with a youthful, lively style and has the subtle spritz that is so appreciated by Muscadet lovers. |
| Recommended with… | Sea and river fish, and shellfish (oysters, mussels, crab, etc.). Can also be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif. Enjoy chilled at approximately 12°C. |
