(Notes from the 2013 vintage)

La Louvetrie is aged on lees for six months, giving it a dry, rich character. A subtle hint of brininess brings freshness and liveliness to this cuvée. The mineral notes characteristic of the Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine appellation are supported by elegant citrus aromas. A fresh wine to be enjoyed young.

Wine rating (2015 guide) 14/20 (2013 vintage) (Good wine)

Rated estate (2016 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Jo Landron's vintages have become benchmarks in the small family of terroir Muscadets. The wines are marketed in a staggered manner, starting with the light Amphibolite, which is best enjoyed for its fruitiness and is very popular in wine bars, followed by the clay-sand or sandstone wines, depending on the case, with the age of the vines influencing the beautiful arrangement of the terroirs. In the best years, Hermine d'Or combines maturity and freshness, and Fief du Breil offers real complexity.
