2023 Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie Cuvée Prestige, Domaine de la Bretonnière, Loire Valley, France

This fabulous 'Cuvée Prestige' is produced from old vines on the estate and really shows off Muscadet at its best. There is a zestiness and minerality to the wine, the melon and stone fruit flavours are intense and the long sur lie ageing gives the wine a real richness.

The Cormerais family have cultivated vines for as long as anyone can remember, the passion for winemaking and grape growing has been passed down through generations since the 1800s. 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.
