Ep. 59 Jo Landron, Domaines Landron

Wine Podcast: The Honest Pour with John Lenart

When I started The Honest Pour there were several winemakers who I really wanted to interview. The guest of this episode is one who I have tried to book for almost three years. The wines of Muscadet are often over cropped, too linear, and mundane, But the wines made by this episode's guest are different. Jo Landron makes some of the most dynamic, terroir driven, and delicious wines in the western Loire's Muscadet region. Known as much for his flamboyant mustache as his wines, Landron uses both organic and biodynamic farming to express the special terroir of his vineyards. Next time you want to have some seafood, raw oysters in particular, pick up a bottle of his delicious and crazy good value wine for a match made in heaven. You can thank me later.
