Louis Metaireau Muscadet Sur Lie Black Label Domaine Du Grand Mouton
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Louis Mtaireau along with his band of vignerons dart, as his like-minded group of producers were known was instrumental in restoring the reputation of the Muscadet appellation in the middle of the 20th century. It was he who first began leaving his wines sur lie (on their fine lees) through the winter. The 23-acre vineyard in the heart of Muscadet Svre et Maine enjoys perfect exposure between the two famed rivers that lend their names to the AOC, and ranges in vine age from 30 years old to a parcel planted in 1937. The vines are tended organically, and everything is harvested by hand a rarity in this region, where 98% of all grapes are machine-harvested, and conventional farming with chemicals is the norm.Black Label, from slightly older vines, is the most classic example of the terroir in the lineup, with more depth. |
