WINE DESCRIPTION

Bonnet-Huteau Muscadet Sèvre et Maine 'Goulaine' is a delightful white wine that showcases the expertise of the producer in the renowned Muscadet Sèvre et Maine appellation. Focused on grapes from a single vineyard with its vines planted on granite and gneiss soils, imparting a distinct mineral character to the wine. Cultivation follows organic and biodynamic methods. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by gentle pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's freshness and purity. The wine is aged on lee for more than a year, giving it much more of a leesy character than most Muscadet and a richness to balance the vibrant acidity. It is a perfect choice for those seeking a light-bodied, dry white wine with a touch of elegance.
