Our Review of the Cuvée
Domaine De La Sénéchalière
Under Marc Pesnot’s care, Melon is no longer a low-key grape variety. Fermentation takes its time, sometimes lasting months; the wine settles, gaining depth without losing its edge. These white wines from the Nantes region possess a unique charm: round yet taut, simple yet profound. In a word: they flow. Pesnot demonstrates that a grape variety often considered neutral can become luminous.
