Overview

Le Clos de la Bourgeonnais (formerly known as Harmonie) is produced from a single parcel of 25-40-year-old vines planted on gabbro soils – the main terroir Michel Delhommeau farms. Gabbro is chemically indistinguishable from Basalt, being its coarse-grained cousin, and makes for a round and supple version of Muscadet with tremendous minerality and capacity for aging.

With the release of the 2022 vintage, Harmonie got a new label and name – Le Clos de la Bourgeonnais.
