In the cool climate and on the chalky, mineral-rich soil, the sauvignon develops subtle aromas and elegant, lively acids. The unique Loire terroir further provides a natural balance in the wine. You can taste that. That balance and refinement are the reason why sauvignon blanc from the Loire has become the model for winemakers in other countries. This sauvignon de Touraine is one from our AH Excellent Selection. For this, our wine buyers look for special wines with a story behind them. For example, because the wine is made in a special way, or because it comes from a new wine region, or because it is one from a famous, classic area like this one.
