Wine Advocate, 92+ Points 

"Fermented in stainless tank with indigenous yeasts, the 2022 Clos de la Butte reveals a fresh and maritime bouquet with crushed stone, smoke, pear and spring flowers followed by a mineral, bright and textured palate, lively acids and a lingering, salty finish. Exquisite!" 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Of the twenty-five hectares he farms, the largest percentage of his production is dedicated to Melon de Bourgogne. No other grape variety can translate a salty ocean breeze quite like it. At Éric’s domaine, just a stone’s throw from the Atlantic coast, the vineyards lie in the direct path of incessant onshore winds. And yet the first impression in his Muscadet is a lovely whisper of florality, perhaps the aromatic footprint of organically farmed old vines with no added yeast and a modest use of sulfur. When the flowers subside, the salt kicks in, leaving your palate both charmed and salivating for more." 

Alcohol: 11.5%
