2023 Domaine de Reuilly "Les Pierres Plates" Reuilly Blanc, Loire Valley, France
This Sauvignon Blanc serves to transmit its Reuilly-ness more than its Sauvignon Blanc-ness. Instead of tropical, heavily grassy notes, you get a lean, chiseled frame with hints of crushed rock and citrus!
There are 4 units left in stock.
ABOUT THIS WINE
100% Sauvignon Blanc grown on clay and Kimmeridgian limestone. The grapes are hand-harvested, then undergo cold-maceration for 3-4 days. Temperature controlled fermentation. The limestone parcel where it originates is called “Les Pierres Plates”—the flat stones—which is filled with fossilized shells from the Kimmeridgian period, when France was covered by ocean.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Denis Jamain of Domaine de Reuilly farms organically and biodynamically, which allows this single-vineyard Sauvignon’s minéralité to sing its purest song.
