Louis Metaireau - Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine sur Lie

Vintage: 2022
Description: Louis Métaireau — along with his band of vignerons d'art, 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, which gave rise to the IOP Muscadet Sèvre Et Maine Sur Lie. Louis' daughter Marie-Luce Métaireau and her husband, Jean-François Guilbaud, followed by their successor, Julien Rossignol, have illustrated their deep love of the land by reclaiming the vineyards of the vignerons d'art and piecing them back together as one of the most prized sites in all of Muscadet: the Grand Mouton vineyard. The 23-acre vineyard in the heart of Muscadet Sèvre et Maine enjoys perfect exposure between the two famed rivers that lend their names
