Salt, Funky, Mineral Apple Tart Muscadet
The Loire’s Hidden Gem

Muscadet, the Loire Valley’s everyday quaffer by the sea. Classically paired with a bucket of ice cold oysters and it's the perfect day-time drinking and simple lunch according to the French.

There is so much more to Muscadet than the light, neutral, ice cold expressions you find on holiday in the summer. Muscadet can truly age, and age considerably well. Muscadet can have body, structure, power and depth. The nose and bouquet of Muscadet can be complex and then complemented equally by a complex texture and finish of minerality and salt.

The 2017 Gula Ana from the master of Muscadet, Luneau Papin is just that. This estate is the gold standard for Muscadet that is complex and frankly not your common everyday Muscadet. The subject line of our email sums this wine up. This is a salty, funky, mineral driven Muscadet with an intense freshly baked French Apple Tart aroma and flavor profile.

Still perfect for that bucket of oysters, but so much more intriguing. Excellent with a vast array of summer time lunch dishes and of course perfect for that simply roasted or grilled chicken.

Don’t be a chicken yourself, give this one a try and explore the other side of Muscadet!

Cheers,
