Description
The Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur Lie appellation is THE wine “par excellence” of the Nantes region.
It owes its name to the two rivers that cross this ideal terroir for the cultivation of the Melon de Bourgogne grape variety. As for the mention “on lees”, it indicates that the wine has spent the winter (no more and no less!) in vats on its fine fermentation lees, which gives it all its richness and aromatic complexity.
Food and wine pairing
As an aperitif, it will perfectly match rillettes or small fish fries. As a starter, it will delight lovers of salmon tartars. Muscadet will satisfy lovers of seafood platters and grilled fish for the main course. For those who want to be exotic, we recommend sushi.
Sensory examination
- Colour : Beautiful color. Light yellow color with bright reflections.
- Nose : Delicately fruity aromas with citrus notes and mineral notes.
- Mouth : Due to its aging on lees, the palate is lively, supple and round, with a great liveliness.
