Fortnum's Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur lie, 75cl

Best-selling author, wine writer and broadcaster Helen McGinn, aka @knackeredmother, has curated a hand-picked selection her favourite bottles from our very own cellars, and this delightful bottle is included.

“When Fortnum’s asked if I’d like to collaborate on some wine selections I wondered if I might be dreaming. Seriously – I’ve loved the Fortnum’s wine shop for years, often finding an excuse to wander the aisles in the name of research. A real hidden gem, the choice of wines is surprisingly eclectic.”

Why Helen loves this bottle…

“The beauty of the Loire Valley – aside from the vineyards – is the understated nature of its wines. This crisp white from the eastern end of the valley close to the Atlantic coast is from one of the best spots in the region and aged on its lees for seven months adding even more deliciousness to the glass.”
