RVF
Haute Tradition is the perfect result of the combination of a quartz terroir, Melon de Bourgogne and a committed winemaker. After nearly a year's ageing on lees, there's substance and balance in this cuvée, which has a nervous attack. Would benefit from a little cellar ageing to discover smoky, spicy notes.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domain rated (2016 guide) 3*Stars (A high-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated (2015 guide) 15.5/20 (Good wine)
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 wine:
Haute Tradition confirms its status as a great vintage [...] with a 2011 of great stature.
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.
