Muscadet Cotes de Grandlieu sur Lie 'Cuvee Prestige' - 2009Loire Valley White Wine 75 cl Bottle
The Cotes de Grandlieu is considered a superior region of Muscadet producing intense wines. This prestige single vineyard 'Clos de la Fine' produces wines with added minerality and fine weight. Exotic fruit on the palate and the rich bread-like character are added by aging the wine over winter on the its lees. Recent winer Silver Medal at Concours Paris
Owned by Luc Choblet, who is a fanatical perfectionist, balancing both technology and tradition in his winemaking. His Muscadet sur Lie is one of intense, almost exotic fruit and clearly shows the character and quality so often missing in this region. The pure Loire Valley Chardonnay is un-oaked and lees aged in the same way that Luc makes his Muscadet.
