| This is a perennial winner. Consistently crafted in a classic style, this Sauvignon Blanc will offer all the characteristic charm and beauty of Sancerre. Look for aromas and flavours of asparagus, gooseberry, grapefruit and smoky flint. You will also encounter the region's remarkable lively acidity and refined mineral undertone. Enjoy this with seafood or herbed chicken. |
