About this wine

Guy Saget's Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie is a crisp, clean Loire Valley classic — bone dry, brilliantly refreshing, and possessed of that distinctive yeasty complexity that comes from extended lees ageing. The 'Sur Lie' designation means the wine rests on its lees through winter, developing texture and depth while retaining all its coastal freshness.

Pale lemon in colour with aromas of green apple, citrus zest and a gentle briny note, this is the quintessential seafood wine. Its lively acidity and clean, mineral finish make it an outstanding partner for oysters, mussels, grilled white fish or a classic fish and chips.

About the producer

Guy Saget is a third-generation Loire Valley wine négociant with a distinguished reputation for expressing the full diversity of France's longest river valley. The Saget family selects and crafts wines from across the Loire's appellations, from crisp Muscadet in the west to refined Pouilly-Fumé and Sancerre in the east. Their Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie exemplifies the classic western Loire style: lean, mineral, and perfect with oysters and shellfish.

Excellent wine and excellent service

A really good Muscadet, crisp and dry with a slight fizz. The wine came very well packaged and was delivered promptly. Matthew could not have been more helpful and worked quickly and efficiently to sort out a problem I had with my order. This was my first purchase with the Wine Shop and I will definitely be buying again. Thank you.
