At the bottom of the price range there, what a nugget! I quickly made it my 'table wine'. It is very good, no.... it is very, very good. The balance is perfect, the taste smooth, flavour lively but not overbearing, a very classy wine. Perhaps not the best sauvignon I ever tasted (ever tried the Monkey Bay from New Zealand?) but definitely my best among French sauvignon wines. Continue the good work...I shall keep on pouring!

Concentrated and minerally, it has a long and balanced finish. There is enough ripe fruit here to enjoy this as a quaffing wine or an aperitif, but it will also match with food. We enjoyed it first with a simple starter of mozzarella and tomatoes garnished with fresh parsley and olive oil followed by a main of lightly-grilled trout fillets with smoked salmon and scrambled egg on the side. For traditionalists, however, the classic match for a Loire Sauvignon is, of course, some local goat's cheese.

In a blind taste test this has Champagne written all over it. Great wine, great price, will definitely be re-ordering.
