L’Escarpe

Val de Loire Sauvignon Blanc

Wine Type: White Wine

Country: France

Region: Loire

Grapes: 100% Sauvignon Blanc

Vinification: Throughout the centuries and eras, passion for wine has always stayed alive. Despite all the ups and downs of history, it remains, more than ever, connected to its territory. Vines grow on clay and limestone soils with gravel. No skin contact. The grapes are gently pressed with a pneumatic press. The must is filtered and fermentation takes place.

Tasting Notes: Bright, pale lemon color. The nose is complex with notes of fresh asparagus and herbaceous aromas combined with hints of tropical fruits aromas. Medium-bodied, this zesty wine reveals flavors of grapefruits with elegant undertones of tropical fruits.

Food Pairings: This wine is best served chilled and paired with seafood, salads, and pasta dishes or as an aperitif.

International Wine Report: The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc displays clean aromatics of gooseberries, grapefruit and exotic fruits that are accented with a lovely mineral character. The palate is fresh, vibrant and bursting with racy acidity, while remaining beautifully balanced throughout.”
