Winemaker notes
Spring frosts in 2015 reduced yields across much of Muscadet. Conditions were warm and dry throughout the growing season resulting in very good quality overall despite the smaller production.
Viticultural Notes
Selection from the best parcels of vineyards surrounding the village or Monnières. Soils are comprised mainly of silica and clay, with some parcels predominantly gneiss. Grapes are machine harvested.
