2021 Eric Chevalier Muscadet Côtes de Grand Lieu Sur Lie “Le Clos de la Butte”

Melon de Bourgogne from the Loire Valley, France

Less than twenty miles from the Atlantic coast, Éric Chevalier produces this exquisite Muscadet that is a perfect reflection of where it originates. It tastes as if it’s been sculpted by winds off the ocean and infused with hints of sea salt in the air. It pairs beautifully with scallops, mussels, and—of course—oysters.
