Description :
Overlooking the confluence of the Sèvre and Maine rivers, the geographical and historical heart of the appellation, the Aulnaye hillside offers one of the most beautiful views of the Nantes vineyard. This Muscadet is made from our oldest vines planted on gneiss. Three years of aging on lees make it a great wine for aging and gastronomy, combining freshness and length on the palate with smoky notes, citrus, fennel, and anise.
