Melon de Bourgogne

Loire Valley, France

Vineyards mostly situated around the towns of Ligne and Udon (Lesser known Coteaux d’Ancenis Muscadet’s sub-region) on terroirs of mica schists and greenstone with decomposed volcanic material. Hand harvested. Grapes are vinified separately based on terroir, natural yeast fermentation. No malolactic fermentation. Minimal intervention in the cellar, on lees ageing in glass-lined concrete tanks (about 6 months) with light filtration and low sulphur added.
