A dry white Sauvignon Blanc from the Sancerre appellation in the Loire Valley, made by J. de Villebois.
It blends fruit from three Sancerre soil types: Caillottes, Terres Blanches and Silex. The grapes are gently pressed, fermented in stainless steel for seven to fifteen days, and aged on fine lees before blending and bottling the following spring.
The nose opens with citrus, green apple, dried orange peel and white blossom, with lime zest and wet stone emerging with time. The palate is taut and mineral-driven, with steely acidity, tart green apple, Bosc pear and a slight creaminess at mid-palate. The finish is long, with mineral and saline notes and a gentle bitter edge.
