2024 Domaine des Herbauges 'La Roche Blanche' Muscadet Côtes de Grandlieu sur Lie
A bright and textural easy drinking wine. Expressive notes of honeydew melon, grapefruit zest, and wet stone. On the palate, vibrant lemon and saline minerality are balanced by a touch of honey for a crisp, refreshing finish. Sourced from 50-year-old vines and matured on the lees for up to 14 months, this wine retains a light, natural spritz that highlights its coastal terroir.

Domaine des Herbauges (Jérôme Choblet) La Roche Blanche, Muscadet Côtes de Grandlieu sur Lie, is made from 100% Melon de Bourgogne grown on soils of schist, quartz, and flint, producing a medium-bodied, fragrant, crisp, and energetic white wine redolent of mango, passion fruit, and blood orange, lifted by lemon and grapefruit peel nuances and imbued with the flinty, stony minerality reflective of its vineyard origins. A must-have for shellfish and seafood dishes, and equally perfect as a crunchy, low-alcohol aperitif when you want something refreshing without reaching for a higher-octane G&T.
