{"product_id":"domaine-bretaudeau-muscadet-gaia-cuvee-ovoide-2023","title":"Domaine Bretaudeau Muscadet Gaia Cuvee Ovoide 2023","description":"Most Muscadet is all snap and salt. Gaia shows what the grape can do with time and a different kind of vessel. Jérôme Bretaudeau ages this Melon de Bourgogne for 18 to 24 months in egg-shaped concrete tanks (hence \"Ovoide\"). The egg shape keeps a gentle current moving through the wine, which builds texture without any wood. The fruit comes from a 1.5-hectare vineyard planted in the 1960s: several mid-slope parcels in Gétigné, with sandy, silty topsoil over gabbro, a volcanic bedrock. The 2023 has unusual breadth and roundness for Muscadet, but the salinity and tension of the site are still there inside that silkier frame. Bretaudeau is a horse trader's son, and his vineyards are certified organic and biodynamic. Hand this to anyone who thinks Muscadet is just a simple oyster wine, though it still loves oysters.","brand":"Veritas [VER]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44104232763427,"sku":"SF-W-VER-`G23-7-BelleVue-MuscadetGaia`-102726-19","price":67.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/1208\/0163\/files\/Bottle-of-Domaine-Bretaudeau-Muscadet-Gaia-Cuvee-Ovoide-2023-White-Wine-Flatiron-SF.jpg?v=1793659813","url":"https:\/\/sf.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/domaine-bretaudeau-muscadet-gaia-cuvee-ovoide-2023","provider":"Flatiron SF","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
