Sauvignon Blanc, Loire Valley, France

Nothing invigorates the spirit quite like Sancerre! These nervy, mineral-driven Sauv Blancs are some of the purest expressions one can find in the Loire, here from a historic Domaine in Verdigny dating back to the 16th century. Smells of the rocks it grew on without the grassy edges — limestone, wet rain, flint & the tartest green apple with a pointed acidity and rocky texture. Take this to your mother-in-law for an easy point in your favour.
