RVF

Aged for a long time on the lees, the Fief du Breil exhibits more complex and smoky notes than Jo Landron’s other Muscadets. The lively attack gives way to fruit with a racy, wild character. It’s no surprise that this is the estate’s flagship wine. Praised by the press vintage after vintage, this is a cuvée you definitely won’t want to miss!

About the wine:

Le Fief du Breil asserted its identity in 2013.

About the estate:

Jo Landron’s wines have become benchmarks in the small family of terroir-driven Muscadets. The winemaker with the legendary mustache has breathed new life into the Melon Blanc grape. What Muscadet lover isn’t familiar with the invigorating Amphibolite? The other wines, enhanced by the transition to biodynamic farming in 2011, sensitively capture this beautiful identity. Sourced from a plot of undulating orthogneiss and quartz, Le Fief du Breil embodies a luminous expression of umami flavor, shaped by its 36-month aging. A wine with extraordinary saline depth that gains character with age. Jo has officially handed the reins to her daughter Hélène and her partner Nicolas Chaurois. Let us salute the career of this extraordinary winemaker, whose wines are among the most flavorful and moving in the Muscadet region.
