Two ambitious young vignerons—Anthony Branger and Benjamin Cormerais—resurrected the historic Clos des Noëlles in 2021, returning to old-fashioned Muscadet making with grip and minerality. Fermented naturally with no malolactic conversion to preserve tension, this 100% Melon de Bourgogne spent nine months on fine lees in granite-dominated soils. White currant and stone fruit character, almost alkaline mineral spine, and plenty of energy that opens up beautifully with air. Loire freshness with architectural structure.
