Winery Notes:
Made from grapes grown on the ‘Oisly’ plateau, in the heart of Touraine region, this wine is an excellent benchmark of ‘Loire Sauvignon Blanc’, distinguished by its aromatic style and lively palate.
Colour : A pale coloured wine with white gold gleams.
Nose : The nose offers expressive notes of white flowers, citrus leaves, plus lemony peppery notes evocative of szechuan pepper.
Palate : In the mouth it is fresh, taut, with crisp acidity that associates citrus aromas with fresh fruit and a mouth-watering salinity. Notes of white pepper and spices appear on the fresh, persistent and delicately textured finish.

This wine begins with reserved aromas of golden apple, pear, orange blossom, dried lemon zest and hay. The palate is more vibrant than the nose with chalk-dusted, fulsome fruit complemented by firm acidity. A vein of richness elevates the wine and imparts structure.
