Located in the northwest region of France, Brittany is home to some of the finest white wines in the country. Muscadet and Gros Plant grape varietals dominate the wine production of the region.
Muscadet grapes originated from Dutch merchants back in the 17th century. The Dutch merchants at that time emphasize the Burgundy melon grape plantation in the region of Pays de la Loire. The flavor that comes out of Burgundy melon grapes became a strong influence to the flavor of Muscadet that locals and tourists enjoy today.
Gros plant, on the other hand, is known for its natural high acidity. Its acidic quality gives the Gros plant a reputation for being a healthy wine. Even though Muscadet and Gros plant are dominant grape varietals in Brittany, the cider is still Brittany’s traditional drink. Currently, Brittany is deemed to be France’s second largest cider-producing region.
