La Muse Muscadet: Elegance from the Loire Valley
La Muse Muscadet offers a refreshing expression of the Loire Valley's Muscadet region. This crisp and vibrant white wine showcases the unique character of the Melon de Bourgogne grape and the elegant style of Muscadet winemaking.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Pale lemon-yellow with hints of green.
- Aromas: Fresh citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit, delicate white flowers, with a subtle undertone of wet stones and sea air.
- Palate: Crisp and lively with flavors of citrus, green apple, and a touch of salinity imparted by the coastal vineyards. The wine has bright acidity and a lingering mineral finish.
Understanding Muscadet
- Location: Hailing from the western end of the Loire Valley, Muscadet Sèvre et Maine is the most prestigious subregion.
- Grape: Melon de Bourgogne, the sole grape of Muscadet, known for its fresh character and delicate aromas.
- Sur Lie Aging: "Sur lie" means the wine ages on the spent yeast cells (lees), giving it subtle richness and complexity. La Muse is likely aged on the lees for a period of time.
Experience the coastal charm of La Muse Muscadet. This delightful white wine is a perfect companion for seafood, oysters, or as a refreshing aperitif.
