Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie is a fresh and energetic white wine from France’s Loire region, made using Melon de Bourgogne grapes.

The Cormerais family have cultivated vines since the 1800s. They have passed their passion for winemaking and grape growing down through generations.

Today it is Bertrand who runs the business having joined his father Joel in 1994.

His philosophy is very simple – he starts in the vineyard with great attention to detail to produce the very best grapes he can while maintaining great respect for the environment.

Muscadet Sèvre & Maine is a bone-dry, light-bodied white wine. It originates from the Loire Valley in France and is made using Melon de Bourgogne grapes. This grape varietal used to be grown massively in Burgundy until it was replaced by Chardonnay. It has however found in the Loire Valley the perfect climate to thrive.

To craft Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie, timing is key. First of all, the grapes must be harvested at optimum maturity and pressed as soon as possible to prevent the must from oxidizing. The fermentation occurs in concrete and buried tanks using yeasts selected for their neutral taste.

Delicate and crisp with notes of citrus zest, white melon and subtle grapefruit nuances. This wine is more about texture and structure than intense fruit aromas, making it a perfect partner for seafood dishes.
