Domaine de la Tourmaline ‘Sur Lie’ Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine 2020

Description

‘Sur lie’ means that this Muscadet has spent time on its lees. They transform super-crisp standard Muscadet into something altogether more complex, with a fuller body, a creaminess and richness that’s absolutely delicious. This also gives it an almost savoury quality, while the slight spritz it’s bottled with helps to preserve its freshness. All these things combine to make Muscadet the ultimate food lover’s wine. It works anywhere you’d use a squeeze of lemon. Seafood’s its natural pair – especially oysters.
