WINE DESCRIPTION
Le Fief du Breil Muscadet-Sèvre et Maine is a delightful white wine produced by Jo Landron and is one of the best made in the Loire Valley. Produced in the Muscadet-Sèvre et Maine appellation, this wine is crafted by a skilled winemaker who follows organic and biodynamic practices. The vineyard features a unique soil composition, with a mix of predominantly granite which imparts a distinct mineral character to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful fermentation and very long aging on the lees, over 24 months resulting in a crisp and refreshing style balanced by a creamy texture and more intensely flavored palate. With its vibrant acidity, subtle citrus flavors, and a touch of salinity, this Muscadet is perfect for pairing with seafood or enjoying on its own.
