Tasting Notes: This Sauvignon Blanc has a slight amber color and a fresh, aromatic nose. It is grassy and minerally flavored and has a refreshingly crisp mouthfeel. The vines are located outside the Loire Valley AOC boundaries, hence the Vin de France classification.
Notes: 50% juice from direct press & 50% juice that spent 12 hours with skin contact maceration. Aged on the lees for 6 months; slightly filtered before bottling.
Food pairing: Best friend as an aperitif, with all your fish meals and seafood, but also with charcuteries. Don't hesitate to try it with goat cheese.
