$16
Classic ripe Muscadet, ripe but fresh, steely around the edges with delicious fresh fruits in the center. It is a lively wine, flavored with grapefruit and white currants, with an apple skin texture.

Crisp and creamy, with red apple flavors. The wine is lifted by its crisp, green acidity, lightly coating the apple skin structure and tautness.

Domaine de la Grenaudière 2009 La Grenouille sur lie Melon (Muscadet Sèvre Et Maine)

$15
La Grenouille, the frog, is a soft, creamy wine, but with a great waft of acidity, like biting into a green apple. The citrus element is there, but it’s that apple flavor and texture that dominates.

Domaine de la Grenaudière 2007 La Grenouille Melon (Muscadet Sèvre Et Maine)
The Frog, it’s called, and, no doubt it could be drunk with frogs’ legs. But, with its intense crispness and superfresh, almost Sauvignon Blanc, green flavor, it would be much better with seafood.
