(2013 vintage notes)

La Louvetrie is aged on lees for 6 months, giving it a rich, dry character. A subtle frizziness adds freshness and liveliness to this cuvée. The mineral notes so characteristic of the Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine appellation are supported by elegant citrus aromas. A fresh wine to drink young.

Vin noté (guide 2015) 14/20 (millésime 2013) (Bon vin)

Domaine rated (2016 guide) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Jo Landron's cuvées have become benchmarks in the all-too-small family of muscadets de terroir. The wines are marketed in a staggered way, starting with the light, fruity Amphibolite - very popular with wine bars - then, depending on the case, the sandy-clay or the sandstone - the age of the vines interfering with the beautiful order of the terroirs. In the best years, Hermine d'Or combines maturity and freshness, and Fief du Breil offers real complexity.
