Description
Domaine Marchand is a family-run winery established in 1650, on the right bank of the Loire River. The winery focuses on minimum intervention and sustainable farming methods, with grapes coming from 35-year-old vines grown in clay and limestone soil. The result is elegant wines such as this one, a crisp, balanced and very refreshing Pouilly Fumé.
Tasting Note
Elegant and refreshingly crisp Sauvignon Blanc with notes of fresh herbs and blackcurrant leaf. The palate has a touch of richness at the core and is followed by citrus notes and a lingering mineral finish.
