Critical Acclaim
The 2023 La Moussière is a rounded, airy wine with pure, clear fruit. It's finely textured with curved edges, both from time on lees (8 months) and a combination of aging in wood, concrete and stainless steel vessels. The pure fruit shines through with no evidence of oak flavor, allowing the pretty lemon, nettle and fresh pineapple characters to sing. Biodynamic since 1999, everything is hand-harvested.<br/><br/>

The 2022 La Moussière is an open and pliant Sancerre. It offers immediate drinking with its supple texture and gently refreshing acidity. Subtle yet appetizing flavors of nectarine and citrus combine to create a welcoming, easy-to-enjoy style with harmony and pleasure. (Rebecca Gibb MW)
