Sous le Végétal – Octave 2018

THIS WINE IS AMAZING! Salty, refreshing, minerally and a unique expression of this Muscat. Amazing with Oysters.

Sous le Végétal is a collaborative wine project by Jason Ligas and Patrick Bouju. The aim is to highlight rare grape varitals & different expressions of the grape ‘Muscat Blanc á Petits Grains’ with different slopes and terroir on the Greek island of Samos, located close to Turkey.

To let you know the difference between the wines, this Octave is Muscat Blanc a Petit Grain like most of the project, taken from eight plots around Mount Karvounis which are made from basalt, schist and quartz.

The wine is aged in concrete vats and then amphora.
