Loire Wines 2009 Update – Sauvignon Blanc Recognition
Posted on 3rd October 2009
Update from the Loire, for white wines good acidity and overall balance has been reported by Clos du Porteau. More specifically, pH 3.25, Acidity 4.37 and Alcohol of 12,2 for their Sauvignon. Acording to Aynard de Cleremont this gives a great equilibrium to their Sauvignon of 2009. Vinifera Boutique will be looking to source these in the future, particularly this wine as it recently received recognition in France. This was the first appearance of the vineyard of Isabelle Clermont-Tonnerre in the Hachette Guide. Below, two stars from the French “Hachette du Vin” is definitely noteworthy as already two star wines are good. For the time being please have a look at the Pinot Grigio and great Vanneau Huppé from 2005 in our Cellar!
