Muscadet Sevre-et-Maine Cru “La Haye Fouassiere”

The domaine owns a single hectare of 40-year-old vines in the renowned cru La Haye Fouassiere, whose terroir consists of mica-schist covered in just 30 centimeters of topsoil. As per cru guidelines, Vincent and Cécile age this cuvée in tank for 18 months, followed by at least six months in bottle before release, and the maximum yield allowable is 45 hectoliters per hectare. With a depth charge of somber earth-inflected minerality, La Haye Fouassiere is built for the long haul—powerfully concentrated and commanding in its intensity on the palate.
