Reuilly ‘Les Fossiles’ Sauvignon Blanc
£20.50
Taste
Mint, white flowers and pineapple, Stylish and mineral
Aroma
Fruity and floral, Sweet green herb with touch of saline
Description
With finesse and precision, this is a very solid example of Sauvignon Blanc from the eastern Loire. It is Sancerre-like, yet with all the minerality of a good Chablis. This can be explained as the soils here sit on the same prized kimmeridgian limestone, as is connected to Chablis. These soils contain a high content of marine and shell fossils dating back to the Jurassic period. The result is a Sauvignon Blanc with impressive minerality. Its aromas are fruity and floral with subtle sweet green herb followed by luscious tastes of tropical fruits.

It’s a beautiful tasting wine that is smooth and light with a subtle taste that accompanied our food perfectly. Will be ordering again. Thank you
