Wine Guide Tom Ager tells all about a real catch from the Atlantic, La Nantaise Réserve.
With piercing crisp lemon fruit and a bracing tang of the sea, Muscadet is one of France’s most distinctive and refreshing whites. The region is the most westerly in the Loire, closest to the Atlantic, so its wines always seem to hint of the sea. You’ll taste that in this delicious Réserve white from fourth generation winemaker Noël Bougrier, who added a portion of lees-aged wine for extra roundness and flavour. Tom serves his with cod and chips from the local chip shop on a Friday night.
