The wine finishes with great length and keeps coming back like a yo-yo with that mineral spine

The freshness gives way to the spices of the end of the mouth

rich texture with extended notes of caramel and Macintosh apple

where it underwent malolactic fermentation

Éric Chevalier Muscadet-Côtes de Grandlieu Sur Lie Le Clos de la Butte 2021 sku_2099941-1 racking after 4/5 daysThis Ctes de Grand Lieu has all the classic stony and fresh Muscadet characteristics, and also that added extra je ne sais quoi you find only from the best producers of the region. There is a lovely whisper of florality, perhaps the aromatic footprint of organically farmed old vines with no added yeast and a modest use of sulfur. When the flowers subside, the salt kicks in, leaving your palate both charmed and salivating for more.
