Muscadet is a white French wine. It is made at the western end of the Loire Valley near the city of Nantes in the Pays de la Loire region neighboring the Brittany Region. More Muscadet is produced than any other Loire wine. It is made from the Melon de Bourgogne grape often referred to simply as melon. As a rule in France Appellation d’origine contrôlée wines are named either after their growing region or after their variety (the latter in Alsace only).
