Sauvion IGP Loire 2016
£8.50
What's your thought on nominative determinism? You know, the idea that if your surname is Baker you're statistically more likely to end up making bread for a living or if your names Cliff you'll have a seagull on your head? A lot of Rhubarb? Well check this out, the winemaker of this fantastically priced Loire is named Pierre-Jean Sauvion and guess what grape he uses... nope not Cabernet Franc... Sauvignon Blanc! With beautiful aromatics of lime, grapefruit, elderflower and steely minerality, it's clear that there's something to this determinism malarkey.
Pierre-Jean Sauvion is a third-generation winemaker in this region and is a specialist in producing crisp whites, juicy roses and crunchy reds from the Loire Valley! This wine is produced from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes from across the Loire Valley IGP. These are machine harvested and fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel vats, followed by a little lees-stirring and then bottled relatively early to retain the fresh aromatic character of the grapes. This is a classic style of Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley in France. Crisp, fresh, aromatic and perfect served chilled with fish.
