Sauvignon Blanc - Domaine des Vaublins - Touraine - Loire - France

Golden with green tints and nice intensity. Complex nose with fine fruit notes and minerals. The palate is rich and thick but with extraordinary finesse. The fruit aromas are ripe and reminiscent of peach.

Current owner-winemaker Nicolas is at least the sixth generation of the Deniau family to farm this property. It was only in 1970s that his father Michel extended the vineyard through the purchase of a 16 hectares plot from writer Gilbert Cesbron, and converted the farmland to vineyards. Nicolas followed in his father's footsteps into winemaking, and even went one step further to study viticulture and oenology at the Lycée Agricole and Viticole of Amboise.
