Grape Varieties
Melon de Bourgogne: Melon de Bourgogne is most commonly grown in the Loire Valley in France and is the grape variety behind Muscadet wines. It is a naturally high yielding grape which produces very dry white wines with a distinctive mineral feel as well as almost neutral-flavored fruit characteristics.
