Picard Bretonnière Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie 2024 shimmers pale silver with green highlights, offering an invigorating nose of sea spray, lemon zest, green apple and white blossom layered over delicate brioche notes from extended lees ageing; the palate is taut, saline and beautifully textured with crisp citrus, pear skin and a subtle almond nuance carried by vibrant acidity, finishing long, mineral and mouth-watering with a clean oyster-shell precision that captures the maritime soul of the Loire.
