Description

Domaine de la Combe Vigne de l Astree, Muscadet Monnieres-Saint-Fiacre (6 Bottle Case)

Age-worthy, complex and structured. Muscadet but not as we know it….

Despite the appellation rules allowing yields of 45hl/ha, Domaine de la Combe reduce them to 23hl/ha for this cuvée, hand harvesting only grapes of ideal maturity. Direct pressing is followed by wild yeast fermentation in old, 600 litre barrels for 3 weeks. Malolactic fermentation is prevented by a very judicious and sparing use of sulphites. The wine then spends 26 months on the lees.

Domaine de la Combe Vigne de l’Astree, Muscadet Monnieres-Saint-Fiacre is a typical Muscadet; this is structured with buttery with yeast notes, dried apricot sweetness, a saline minerality and long finish. The wine is complex and unusually for Muscadet will age well.

Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
