 The
region defined as the "VAL DE LOIRE" begins to the West with
the muscadets and gros-plants in the region of Nantes and
ends in the East, up river passing through the coast of Auvergne
and St-Pourçain. To the north, you will find Jasnière and
Orléanais wines and to the South fiefs vendéens, Châteaumeillant
and Haut-Poitou wines.
----------------------
In our first articles, AZUREVA.COM invited you to discover the Loire Valley
wines from ANJOU, TOURS and ORLEANS.
 This
time we would like to tell you about the wines from the area around Nantes.
Though Nantes is actually in Brittany, it is nevertheless an integral
part of the Loire Valley. These wines benefit from the mild climate in
the region because of its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. We'll begin
our tour with Muscadet Sur
Lie.
