Bêtes Curieuses
Bêtes Curieuses produces Melon de Bourgogne wines from Muscadet, the Loire Valley's coastal appellation in Pays Nantais. The region's maritime influence and granite-rich soils shape wines of mineral precision and saline tension. The winery's Château Thébaud and Goulaine bottlings, both crafted from Melon de Bourgogne, have earned recognition from Decanter. A third expression, simply labeled Muscadet, rounds the portfolio. Melon de Bourgogne thrives in this cool climate, yielding wines of crisp acidity and subtle stone-fruit character—the traditional expression of Muscadet's terroir. These are wines built for food and freshness rather than extraction or oak.
