Still bright, vivid and refreshing, this cracking Muscadet is really starting to show some personality. We love the intense citrus notes here, but they are starting to give way to a slightly briny profile, this is a shoe-in for seafood!

Ah, Muscadet! The very name evokes images of sun-drenched vineyards, the gentle hum of bees, and the clink of glasses raised in celebration. This charming French wine region is located in the Loire Valley region, near the mouth of the Loire River and the city of Nantes. Muscadet wines are made with the Melon de Bourgogne grape, which thrives in the cool, Atlantic-influenced climate of the region. The wines are known for their crisp acidity, bright minerality, and delicate fruit flavours. The Département 44 wine is the brainchild of a British Master of Wine, Liam Steevenson, who specialises in teaming up with talented winemakers around the world, seeking out top vineyards and crafting his now, small parcel wines. He launched the Département range across France, in a bid to replicate some of the nation's favourite wines - and he succeeded. Enjoy!
