100% Sauvignon Blanc

The nose is highly expressive and perfumed, offering aromas of orchard pear, white blossoms, and subtle forest floor, anchored by unexpected hints of cedar. On the palate, it delivers a crisp, complex core of red apple, dried grass, and summer field herbs, culminating in a long, remarkably clean finish. 

Mary Taylor Coteaux du Giennois Blanc, crafted in collaboration with winemaker Alice Berthier, is an exceptional expression of 100% Sauvignon Blanc from France’s Central Loire Valley. While often overshadowed by its famous neighbors, Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, this hidden gem offers a sophisticated alternative that masterfully showcases the region's diverse terroir.

Alice Berthier belongs to a multigenerational winemaking family rooted in the village of Sainte-Gemme. Managing her family's estate with a deep commitment to environmental stewardship, Berthier works in harmony with the land, currently steering the vineyards through organic conversion. Her partnership with Mary Taylor—an importer dedicated to highlighting European heritage and artisanal, place-specific wines—brings this authentic expression of the Coteaux du Giennois appellation to a broader global stage.
The defining characteristic of this wine is its unique soil composition. The grapes are harvested from 30-year-old vines planted across a mosaic of terroirs: 50% silex (flint), 30% limestone, and 20% clay. This specific geological blend infuses the wine with a distinct smoky minerality and vibrant acidity that balances its fruit profile
