Our Review of the Cuvée

On the nose, this wine reveals enticing aromas of white fruits delicately roasted in butter, with a hint of damp stone and evocative sea spray. The first sip bursts with freshness, enhanced by a lively effervescence. On the palate, the balance is savory, reminiscent of juicy fruit, somewhere between a crisp apple and a pulpy lemon. The finish stands out for its length and invigorating character, where bitterness, astringency, and acidity intertwine harmoniously, leaving a lingering salty and spicy trail.

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.
