Melon de Bourgogne Wine | 2020 Domaine de La Morandière | French White Wine

Domaine de La Morandiere Muscadet Sur Lie 2020 | Loire Valley Dry White Wine

Discover the essence of terroir with Domaine de La Morandiere’s Muscadet Sur Lie 2020—a standout expression of the Loire Valley’s Melon de Bourgogne grape. Crafted from vines rooted in volcanic Gabro soils mixed with sand and clay, this wine embodies a harmonious balance of minerality and complexity at an exceptional value.

Taste Profile:
This crisp dry white opens with aromatic notes of white flowers and citrus pith, layered with hints of wet stone and ocean spray—a testament to its sur lie aging for 12 months. The texture is velvety yet structured, offering a refreshing tension that sets it apart from lighter Muscadets. Each sip reveals a refined mineral backbone derived from the estate’s unique volcanic terroir, making it a sophisticated choice for connoisseurs seeking depth without heaviness.

Why It Stands Out:
Unlike many Muscadets that lean delicate, this wine’s full-bodied texture allows versatility at the table. Pair it with classic seafood dishes like oysters or Dover sole for a match made in coastal heaven. But don’t stop there—its weight and minerality also shine with richer fare such as seared scallops or even herb-crusted rack of lamb, breaking the mold of traditional pairings.

Crafted for Every Occasion:
At 12% alcohol by volume, this wine strikes the perfect balance between approachability and complexity. Whether you’re hosting a casual dinner or seeking a refined sip on its own, Domaine de La Morandiere’s Muscadet Sur Lie delivers exceptional quality that defies its entry-level status.
