The « historical » cuvée of the Perraud brothers and still the main pillar of their production for its exquisite quality and excellent value for money.

Made with the traditional Muscadet wine grape called « Melon de Bourgogne » in the underground glass tanks also traditional and specific to the Muscadet wine region, it features the distinctive qualities of good Muscadet wines (dryness, freshness, minerality with a slight iodine touch) and enriches it with roundness and aromatic complexity (hazelnuts, white flowers, white peaches, green melon).

This 2021 vintage is a very good one, balanced and full. One of the best Muscadet out there in our humble opinion, at an even humbler price for this great natural white.
