Region: Muscadet Sèvre-et-Maine, France
Grapes: 100% Melon de Bourgogne
Body: Light-bodied
Notes: Green apple, lemon, lime, pomelo, chamomile, honeysuckle, subtle saline minerality.
Pairing: Oysters and shellfish, lean fish, seafood platters, salads, light cheeses.
Additional Info:
Denis is a classic Muscadet-sur-Lie from Lavie, made from organically grown Melon de Bourgogne in the Pays Nantais of the Loire Valley. Vinified in concrete and aged on its lees (sur lie) after fermentation, the wine benefits from extended contact with yeast lees, which builds texture and enhances freshness and complexity without overpowering fruit expression. Muscadet sur lie is traditionally bottled after spending the winter on lees, capturing bright acidity, saline tension and citrus-driven character that pair exceptionally well with seafood — especially oysters, clams and shellfish.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
