Produced mainly in Loire-Atlantique, Muscadet S\u00e8vre et Maine is a wine from the <strong>Val-de-Loire<\/strong> vineyards <strong>,<\/strong> made from the Melon de Loire grape variety <strong>.<\/strong>   <strong>Burgundy. A dry, fruity white wine, mineral and refreshing. <\/strong>It is an ideal accompaniment to seafood dishes and fish with beurre blanc.<\/p>\n\n<p>Did you know that this AOC, created in 1936, is one of the oldest in <strong>France<\/strong>? It&#8217;s also the largest regional appellation in the Nantes vineyards in terms of surface area and production volume, with 425 winegrowers producing Muscadet. <\/p>\n\n<p>The term &#8220;sur lie&#8221; refers to a winemaking process. The lees is the deposit formed during alcoholic fermentation. It consists mainly of yeast, bacteria and organic compounds. There are very precise criteria for labelling wines &#8220;sur lie&#8221;.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Le Voyage dans le Vignoble<\/h2>\n\n<p>Between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochelets.com\/camping-nantes\">Nantes<\/a> and <strong>Clisson<\/strong>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/tourisme-loireatlantique.com\/le-voyage-dans-le-vignoble\/\">Voyage dans le Vignoble<\/a> is a 118 km wine tourism circuit.
