This 100% Sauvignon blanc has had no wood aging, only stainless steel to preserve the freshness. The wine is wonderfully fresh, tight, dry. In the nose, the Petit Clocher Sauvignon Blanc has notes of citrus, white peach, almond and honeysuckle. In the mouth the wine is open, fresh with a tight attack with lots of citrus and stone fruit, a touch of fresh mint, pleasant structure and a long fresh aftertaste. This is a great Loire wine and an excellent and very affordable alternative to the many expensive Loire wines.
