If you prefer to drink sweet wine, you don't have to start a Muscadet. Because it is tight. It even tastes a bit salty. Perhaps that is because of its location, close to the Atlantic Ocean. Muscadet is made from the muscadet grape also called melon de Bourgogne. The wine comes from Le Pays Nantais, which is located in the west of the Loire Valley. Muscadet is often mentioned in the same breath as mussels and other shellfish. This light, almost colorless wine also fits very well, but it is also recommended as a terrace wine on a hot summer day or as an invigorating aperitif. Provided you like it really dry.
