- This charming, dry Sauvignon Blanc from Touraine is crisp with lively herbaceous and citrus flavours, good weight on the palate, and a clean, fresh finish with a hint of minerality.
The grapes were crushed and underwent a 36-hour débourbage, or settling, before being traditionally vinified in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures. Fermentation took place with wild yeasts. The wine was aged on its fine lees for four months, imparting texture and complexity before being bottled. This cuvée was made in an unoaked style to express the fruit's purity and the terroir's nuances.

Winery | The vineyard is located on the east side of la Vallée de la Loire, between Amboise and Chéverny, in the heart of the Appellation of Touraine. Benefitting from a warm climate during the summer months, this microclimate helps the grapes to achieve their ripening potential. The soil is predominantly sand and silex; the latter imparts the characteristic flinty notes of the region. The fruit is machine-harvested at optimal maturity to retain freshness. |
