Sauvignon de Touraine, Domaine Patrick Vauvy

Patrick Vauvy manages 30 hectares of vines, the majority planted with Sauvignon Blanc.

The Domaine has been in the hands of the Vauvy family for generations, Patrick took over and has brought new vision and an experimental style to the Domaine. He is often the last of his neighbours to harvest. Located above the banks of the Cher River, the soil is predominantly sand based giving the wines a fruit driven, immediately appealing style.

Attractively aromatic, rich dry Sauvignon showing the fruit character of fully ripe grapes. Exotic fruits in abundance on the nose and just a hint of mint. On the pallet its fresh and tangy and the finish is fruity and moreish.

This wine accompanies asparagus with hollandaise but should be tried with goats cheese and works well with tuna dishes.
