Tasting Notes
Pale straw in the glass, this wine is all about vitality and lift. The nose is immediately fragrant, with notes of elderflower, gooseberry, fresh lime and a subtle grassy, citrus-edged character that feels unmistakably Loire. On the palate, it is crisp, clean and refreshing, with lively acidity and a zesty, fruit-driven profile. The finish is dry and mouthwatering, with enough precision and balance to make it highly drinkable now, while still offering a short to medium drinking window for those who enjoy youthful Sauvignon Blanc.

Production
Menetou-Salon lies in the eastern Loire, where cool conditions and limestone-rich soils help Sauvignon Blanc retain its freshness, aromatics and tension. The grapes are typically harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve acidity and fragrance, and the vinification is carried out to emphasize purity, fruit expression and a clean, precise style.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, to highlight its refreshing character. It works beautifully with oysters, goat’s cheese, grilled fish, shellfish, light salads and asparagus, and there is usually no need to decant a wine like this.

Producer
Domaine La Gemière is a respected family estate in Menetou-Salon, an appellation often seen as one of the Loire’s most underrated sources of Sauvignon Blanc. The domaine is known for producing wines that combine regional authenticity with excellent value, helping showcase why Menetou-Salon has earned a loyal following among white-wine lovers.
