Muscadet Sevre et Marne Domaine de Bellevue, organic wine, natural wine, wild yeast, stunning purity to this fresh natural Muscadet. 2016 and 2017 were very challenging vintages for Jerome Bretaudeau as he saw both vintages disappear in front of him due to hard frosts and hail storms, losing approx 80% of his fruit each year. However the end of the season was much more kind than the start yielded a small amount of stunning quality grapes. The result in bottle is outstanding and his soft approach in the cellar has given birth to beautiful wines. His Muscadets are taught and minerally, with apples and pears throughout. A delicious bottle of wine with bags more character than many other examples.
