Fruity & Mineral

Built in the 15th century, the Château de la Grange-Barbastre belonged to the Barbastre family, Lord of the Grange, until the end of the 16th century. The property passed to the de Goulaine family in 1777.

Planted on slopes facing south and southeast, this Muscadet Côtes de Grand Lieu sur Lie is cultivated on the best soils of the estate and from vines that are over 40 years old.

Aged on its fine lees for 11 months, the nose is elegant with hints of white flowers, lemon zest, ginger and salty minerality. The contact with the lees for an extended period of time to develop a beautiful creamy texture balanced out by bracing acidity. 

Muscadet Sur Lie is an exquisite pairing with oysters or any other type of shellfish. A true classic pairing would be 'moules frites' - mussels tossed in shallots, white wine and herbs with a side of french fries!

Muscadet is a bellwether of climate change, with most tasted in recent years showing more ripeness that I am trained to expect. This is a shiny bright, pale lemon shaded example that captures more complexity and depth than expected at the price. The nose shows generous pear, lemon zest and tarragon, with signature Muscadet briny minerality. It is medium bodied, with brisk acidity and loads of fruit and warmth. Slightly bitter lemon on the finish. Excellent length. Chill well. Tasted November 2025

Subtle and delicate on the nose though very much in the delicately stony, non-aromatic Muscadet idiom, this example also shows a waxy profile, towards the beeswax side, a feature of the warm vintage. The palate is light-mid-weight, declared at 12% alcohol, with creamy acids and good length. A solid value all around, drinking really well now; chill and go. Tasted November 2025.
