Winemaker Notes
Citrus streaked and minerally, with snappy flavors of lemon, grapefruit and crushed stones. Very tangy, with lots of chive, thyme and flint notes that ripple through the finish. Touraine is a French wine region that excels in the production of great-value, modern-style Sauvignon Blancs, although red and rose is produced too. Its soil / terroir is tuffeau, a soft, porous chalk from which many cellars are hewn. Touraine offers a similar drinking experience to sibling Loire appellations Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume - but at a significant discount!
