Winemaking process:
Laurent Freuchet farms 28 hectares in the Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine area near Nantes. The wine is aged "sur lie", resting on its fine lees through the winter after harvest and bottled straight off them, which gives texture and a light prickle. Melon de Bourgogne came from Burgundy and spread here after the great frost of 1709.
Vinoteka's note
Muscadet from Domaine de la Tourette in Maisdon-sur-Sèvre, where Laurent Freuchet is the fourth generation; his great-grandfather helped create the appellation. Aged on its lees for freshness. Pale gold with green glints; light and fresh on the nose, crisp on entry, then round, fruity and fine. Serve at 8–10 °C with a seafood platter or fish.
