Francois Blanchard A Table! Maceration 2023

Style Orange Wine

Grape Sauvignon Blanc

Region, Country Touraine, Loire Valley, France

Soil Clay and Silex 

Sauvignon Blanc from fifty year old vines planted over clay and silex in La Grand-Cléré. The grapes were destemmed by hand and after a month of maceration, pressed slowly to barrel for six months of rest.

A cooler vintage has produced a bright, lifted wine that pours a hazy shade of orange and wows with a perfume of orange and blossoms, whilst zest, salt and tannin bring refreshment in spades.
