Domaine de la Bretonniere Sauvignon Blanc, 2024 IGP Val de Loire, France
Domaine de la Bretonnière’s Sauvignon Blanc is an excellent example of the brisk, linear, textural style the Domaine is best known for. Made entirely of Sauvignon Blanc, the juice was separated from the lees after pressing, fermented, then aged on fine lees in concrete tanks for seven months. This period of sur lie maturation lends a creaminess and rounded feel to the palate of this typically crisp, direct grape variety.
This classic Loire Valley white delivers the fresh, vibrant style for which the region is renowned. Produced from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, it showcases the bright fruit, crisp acidity, and mineral character that make Loire Sauvignon Blanc one of France's best-value white wines.
Aroma: Fresh citrus, green apple, white peach, and subtle floral notes with hints of fresh-cut herbs.
Palate: Dry, crisp, and lively, featuring lemon, lime, green apple, and a touch of minerality. Aging on fine lees adds a gentle creaminess and texture without diminishing its refreshing character.
Finish: Clean, zesty, and mineral-driven with lingering citrus freshness.
Winemaking: After pressing, the juice is separated from the heavy lees, fermented, and then aged for approximately seven months on fine lees in concrete tanks. This sur lie aging enhances texture and complexity while preserving the wine's bright fruit and freshness.
Food Pairing:
Fresh oysters, shrimp, and grilled fish
Goat cheese and soft cheeses
Salads and vegetable dishes
Sushi and light Asian cuisine
Chicken with lemon or fresh herbs
Serving Temperature: 8–10°C (46–50°F)
