For 5 generations, the Gadais family has been guaranteeing the production of top Muscadet sur Lie in the Loire village of Saint-Fiacre-Sur-maine. Since the early 1700s, the “Melon de Bourgogne” (Muscadet) has been renowned for its almost unbeatable combination with fish dishes and more specifically shellfish and seafood. The grape is indeed originally from Burgundy, but nowadays it is only produced in the region around Nantes. The region of the Muscadet has traditionally been dominated by large trading houses that put quantity over quality, making it difficult for the smaller winegrower to compete and leading to a price war that only knew losers. But for some time now, under the impulse of a few passionate winegrowers, the qualities have increased enormously and you can even find gems of wines there for modest prices. The Gadais family owns several domains and is one of the pioneers in the field of modernization, ecological and sustainable agriculture and quality improvement in general. The vineyard where there is historically the very first known mention of Muscadet is also in their possession. They gave the Melon de Bourgogne back the place where it rightly belongs. Namely among the best culinary wines of France.
