WINE DESCRIPTION
The Bêtes Curieuses Clisson is a distinguished Muscadet from the Loire Valley, crafted entirely from Melon de Bourgogne grapes. This wine embodies the essence of its terroir, showcasing a full-bodied, minerally character complemented by fresh elegance. The meticulous approach to winemaking ensures a balance of grip and tension, resulting in remarkable purity. The finish is long and refined, revealing enticing aromas of just-ripe apples. Jeremie Huchet and Jeremie Mourat, two passionate vignerons, joined forces to celebrate the unique expressions of the Sevre and Maine terroirs, bringing this exceptional cuvée to life.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Muscadet is best served chilled and pairs beautifully with fresh seafood, particularly oysters, or light dishes like grilled vegetables and poultry.Its vibrant acidity and minerality make it an ideal complement to rich, creamy sauces. Enjoy it young to appreciate its freshness, though it can also develop additional complexity with careful cellaring over the next few years. The wine’s elegant finish and just-ripe apple notes make it a delightful choice for casual gatherings or special occasions.
