Introduction:
A crisp and lively Sauvignon Blanc from France’s Loire Valley, this wine delivers zesty freshness and aromatic purity. Crafted for clarity of fruit and vibrant energy, it makes an ideal aperitif or accompaniment to light fare.
Terroir:
From vineyards in the Loire, the vines grow on cool, well-drained soils—including clay-limestone and flint substrates. The region’s continental climate with moderate maritime influences promotes slow ripening and bright acidity.
Appearance:
Pale straw with green highlights, showing clarity and youthful vibrancy.
Nose:
Lifted aromas of lime peel, grapefruit, and green apple are joined by subtle herbal notes—cut grass, gooseberry leaf—as well as a faint floral hint of elderflower.
Palate:
Light-bodied and finely tuned, the palate is energetic with bright citrus flavors—lemon, lime, and pomelo—plus green melon and a nuance of flinty minerality. A streak of acidity gives spine and drive.
Finish:
Clean and refreshing, with lingering citrus zest, a whisper of white peach, and a delicate mineral crispness.
Overall Impression:
This Sauvignon Blanc offers a pure, food-friendly style with vitality and finesse. Perfect with oysters, goat cheese salad, or simply chilled on a warm day, it’s a versatile expression of Loire elegance.
