Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire

A dry white wine with a dashing aroma of the Sauvignon grape. The taste is full and fresh-dry, with a pleasant, persistent aftertaste.

Pierre Clément, the Salon

Pierre Clément has now brought his beautiful dry white sauvignon from the chalky vineyards in Menetou-Salon to a great quality level. Due to its great culinary versatility, this intensely pure white wine is a favorite of sommeliers in countless restaurants.

Pierre Clément's strong point is the constant and high quality of this fresh and appetizing wine. After picking, the best grapes are selected on sorting tables. One third of the harvest is briefly macerated with the skin and then pressed with little pressure. After fermentation, the wine matures 'sur lie'. This happens during the winter months; the wine is not bottled until March.

Clément makes a sauvignon blanc through and through and his wine is high on the list of most sought-after white loire. Both the sauvignon blanc and pinot noir grapes were optimally ripe in 2015, with sufficient sugars and with retention of beautiful acids.
