I had earlier blogged about a range of Muscadet exploring different soils, which I saw in the neighbourhood wine shop specializing in organic wines. I just found that the same shop now carries another series of wines, this time from the Languedoc region, doing exactly the same across a total of 11 subsoil types.
They have four wines from that series available (here in Hong Kong, since they are an outlet for an importer), namely Basalte, Marnes, Poudingue and Schiste. Unlike the Muscadets in the earlier blog, the cepage varies and so do the appellations. As you can also see in the picture above, the wines available also vary in their vintage too!! Well, let me see if they have a set of a single vintage, then we can really do a "soil tasting" with the Muscadets together.
