2023 Mary Taylor 'Alice Berthier' Coteaux Giennois Blanc, Loire Valley, France
Regular price $25.00
Unit price per
Sauvignon Blanc
When one thinks of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc, Sancerre springs to mind for many. But just a few miles north of popular Sancerre lies the hidden treasure of Coteaux du Giennois. Little known outside of France, Coteaux du Giennois just received AOP status in 1998 - yet it has been producing wine since the 2nd century, and vineyards here were given as gifts by the French royal court as early the 800s.
Vibrant nose of pear and citrus, red apple, dried grass and summer field herbs show beautifully on the palate with classic Loire minerality.
