A white wine made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc in the Pouilly-Fumé appellation of France's Loire Valley. Domaine J. de Villebois sources fruit from limestone, marl with oyster-shell fossils and clayey-flint soils. Grapes are transported quickly, gently pressed with a pneumatic press, and fermented in stainless steel tanks over 7 to 15 days. The wine then rests on its fine lees in stainless steel for at least six months. The nose shows zesty lime, green apple, quince, elderflower and flinty minerality, with fresh-cut grass, blackcurrant bud and iodine. The palate is crisp, with gooseberry, green citrus, mandarin, pear, white peach and lees-derived texture. The finish has wet-stone minerality, saline complexity and smoky undertones.
