Domaine Chatelain 2015 Les Vignes de Saint-Laurent l’Abbaye (Pouilly-Fumé)

Country: France / Les Vignes de Saint-Laurent l’Abbaye
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Loire Valley
Winery: Domaine Chatelain / Pouilly-Fumé

Originally planted by monks in the 12th century, this vineyard has produced an intensely herbaceous wine. Steely and crisp with grapefruit and gooseberry flavors, the wine’s texture brings out the chalky soil. Still young, it will be better from 2018.
