Melon 'Vendange Nocturne' 2023

$21.00

The Nocturne from Domaine de la Combe is composed of 100% Melon de Bourgogne; (i.e. a declassified Muscadet). This flint, green and sprightly little wine is like morning mist, super light and approachable. This organically-farmed wine was sourced from 40 year old vines, then fermented in stainless steel tanks.

  • The wine was vinified by Pierre-Henri Gadais, from organically-farmed vineyards.
  • Pierre wanted to label the wine according to the variety, but appellation laws do not allow this, so he named it “Nocturne,” because the harvest took place in the evening.
  • The wine was vinified with an emphasis on the fruit flavor, not the lees.

Vibes with:

  • Ocean-inspired faire.
  • Post work pick me up.
  • Sharing a bottle of this with your friend who drinks Stella Artois.
