Description
In a nutshell:
Zesty Loire Sauvignon, all bright citrus and a touch of blossom - seriously easy drinking.
The lowdown:
This Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc is all about zesty citrus and delicate hints of white flowers. The grapes come from vineyards where the soil has a bit of flint and limestone, giving the wine a lively zing. Made purely from Sauvignon Blanc, with time spent on lees for complexity, results in a fresh, well-rounded character. Expect fresh pear and red apple flavours after that initial citrus blast. There's a touch of minerality too, which keeps things crisp and refreshing right to the end.
The Producer:
Established in 1973, Domaine Chainier is a significant player in the Loire Valley. Balancing their role as a négociant with the stewardship of 250 hectares in the heart of Touraine, they cultivate classic Loire varieties. This includes sourcing grapes from the newly formed Touraine-Chenonceaux appellation. Their dedication to history shines at Clos de Nouys, one of Vouvray's oldest estates. Here, on sites recognized as superior since 1907, vines with an average age of 35 years thrive. Domaine Chainier offers a compelling blend of Loire tradition and a forward-thinking approach.
When to drink:
A lovely crisp Sauvignon, this is a cracker with seafood, a fresh salad, or a generous wedge of goat's cheese.
