Description
Avant-gardist, the Domaine de l’Ecu is certified in organic agriculture since 1975 and biodynamic since 1998 (Demeter) on all of its 24 hectares. They are also certified by Biodyvin since 2014. This 100% Melon de Bourgogne is the antithesis of Muscadet wines technology and industry in the service of expressing the terroir. The siliceous soils from metamorphic rocks contribute much to this wine of tremendous elegance and style. Harvested 100% manually and barrelled in entire crops, the handling of these wines is by gravity only, no pump, fermented by artisans using solely indigenous yeasts.
Tasting Notes:
Straw yellow, crystalline. Nose mixing smoky notes on a background of citrus and white flowers, fine notes of encaustic. The mouth is lurking, has a beautiful volume but also a tension and freshness that would not displease the fans of Muscadet.
