Item # 39203 750 mL

A family Domaine situated on the "rive gauche" of Chinon and around Ligré and la Roche-Clermault since 1846. Marc Plouzeau took over the estate in 1988 and works to produce small yields and only hand harvest. This lovely Sauvignon Blanc comes from gravel soil close to the river. Delicate aromatics of citrus flavors carry to the palate.
