Domaines Landron - Le Fief du Breil 2013
15/20
RVF
With extended aging on lees, Fief du Breil displays more developed and smoky notes than Jo Landron's other Muscadets. The lively attack gives way to fruit with a racy and wild side. It's no surprise that this is the estate's flagship wine. Recognized by the press year after year, this is a cuvée not to be missed!

Le Fief du Breil asserts its character in 2013.
About the estate:
Jo Landron's vintages have become benchmarks in the small family of terroir Muscadets. The winemaker with the legendary moustache has breathed new life into the white melon grape. What Muscadet lover is not familiar with the invigorating Amphibolite vintage? The other wines, boosted by the switch to biodynamics in 2011, sensitively convey this beautiful identity. From a plot of undulating orthogneiss and quartz, Le Fief du Breil embodies a luminous expression of umami flavor, carried by its 36 months of aging. A wine with extraordinary saline depth that asserts itself with age. Jo has officially handed over the reins to his daughter Hélène and her partner Nicolas Chaurois. Let's salute the career of this extraordinary winemaker, whose wines are among the most delicious and moving in Muscadet.
