Domaine de l'Ecu
A powerful nose, with notes of yellow apple, cardamom, and citron... The palate is extremely unctuous, creamy and full; huge volume, this is a rich, deep and delicate wine, with a long finish.

A 100% Chenin cuvée from vines planted in massal selection on Orthogneiss subsoils and farmed biodynamically, certified by Demeter. Manual harvest, work in the cellar by gravity. Vinification without additives: direct pressing of the whole bunches, and maturation in amphorae for 12 months. Bottled without fining or filtration, and just a micro-dose of sulphur!

Fred Niger
Fred bought Domaine de l'Écu in 2010, with its perfect soils cultivated organically since 1972, then certified biodynamic by DEMETER in 1998. He’s been collaborating with Guy Bossard since 2014, the master of Muscadet. The pairing is simply miraculous. Fred, a novice at winegrowing but an unparalleled taster, knows exactly what he wants and what he intends to do for wine in the Muscadet....
