Pinot Grigio Rosé Ca'Solare ITALY 2007 12% abv

Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine sur lie Fief de la Brie FRANCE 2007 12% abv
A delicate and subtle, lemony white wine from the Loire Valley. The local cuisine is very seafood orientated and so this wine is the obvious match. The quality of this wine is superior to the standard AC Muscadet as the wine has spent some time 'sur lie'. Lees refers to the natural yeast sediment, which is left in contact with the wine at the end of fermentation adding an enticing complexity to this fresh style of wine.
