2021 de Ladoucette Les Deux Tours Sauvignon Blanc

The largest and most famous vineyards of Pouilly-Fumé have been owned by the Lafond and Ladoucette families since the 19th century. Pouilly-Fumé would even have been Napoleon's favorite white wine. In 1972, Baron Patrick de Ladoucette took the helm. His philosophy is to extract the very best from wines from individual vineyards that have enjoyed international recognition for over two hundred years.

Les deux tours is made by the famous house of Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, known for his famous Regnard Grand Chablis, the L as de Pouilly fumé de Ladoucette. Les deux tours is a traditional Loire Sauvignon, less "greenish" than a Pouilly fumé, because the more central appellation Touraine is already a bit warmer and a slightly fruitier style produces less tighter sauvignon blancs and, not unimportantly, substantially cheaper in terms of price. The wine is yellow-green, has a very expressive nose ranging from grapefruit to citrus notes and floral aromas. Nice acidity, lots of body, rich and round and a nice aftertaste.
