Biodynamic. One of Landron’s emblematic cuvées, Amphibolite, takes its name from the greenish metamorphic bedrock (amphibolite) where this wine is grown. Produced from vines aged between 35 and 40 years, this was vinified with only a short period on lees, as Jo Landron wants to retain as much freshness and minerality as possible. “It’s a free-spirited Muscadet,” he says. Only minor doses of sulphur are used to block malolactic conversion. With some lovely textural padding this year, it’s an ultra-pure, racy expression of Muscadet loaded with white floral notes and all kinds of citrus underpinned by the briny, iodine minerality that is a hallmark of this cuvée. Bottled without filtration at just 11.5%, it’s a refreshingly pure, mineral zinger that will disappear in a heartbeat.

Reviews

“Subtle aromas give way to a palate that's concentrated, full-flavoured and explosive, with lots of texture and a rocky mineral tingle. Pear skin and a bite of Golden Delicious apple. Cashew richness adds depth. I love the saline finish.”
