| Post subject: | La Grille Sauvignon Blanc 2010 7.99 Waitrose |
100% Sauvignon Blanc made by Franck Chatelain, head winemaker at the Bougrier family’s Touraine winery in the village of St Georgessur- Cher. Selecting the grapes from small growers working under contract (imposing a respect for the sustainable viticulture principles of lutte raisonnée), the wine is made from grapes grown on a selection of chalk, sand and flint. The grapes were harvested in perfect conditions in late-Sept by machine, then fermented at cool temperatures of 16 - 18°C and matured on lees to gain extra complexity. Winemaker Franck Chatelain. Alc 12.0%, TA 4.7g/l, pH 3.2, RS 3.0g/l. Special Offer: Save 25%, £7.99 - £5.99 from 09/11/11 to 06/12/11. Waitrose Wine Direct and 152 branches. There’s a lovely, fresh, peapod aroma, but it doesn’t shout at you. Nice, sweet, grapey fruit and fresh, light, acidity. Good. 06/10/11 |
