Menetou Salon Blanc Les Bornés Henri Pellé Menetou Salon, 2024

Menetou-Salon Blanc Les Bornés from Henri Pellé is a crisp, mineral-driven Loire Sauvignon Blanc that captures the elegance and freshness the appellation is known for. Sourced from the Les Bornés parcel, it offers a refined expression of Menetou-Salon with bright citrus character, subtle herbaceous notes, and a clean, precise finish.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a pale straw color with green reflections, signaling freshness and youth. The nose is lively and lifted, with aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, white flowers, and a touch of flinty minerality, followed by delicate herbal nuances. On the palate, the wine is bright and focused, balancing juicy citrus fruit with a firm mineral core and vibrant acidity. The finish is crisp and refreshing, making it highly enjoyable now, though it can also gain a little more complexity over the next 2–4 years.

Production
Les Bornés comes from the Menetou-Salon appellation in the Loire Valley, where chalky and limestone-rich soils help shape the wine’s distinctive minerality and tension. Sauvignon Blanc is typically harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve aromatic lift and natural acidity, then vinified with care to keep the style pure, fresh, and expressive.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with goat cheese, oysters, shellfish, sushi, grilled fish, and fresh salads with herbs or citrus. Serve chilled at 8–10°C and decanting is not necessary; a simple brief rest in the glass is enough to open up its aromatics.

Producer
Henri Pellé is a respected name in Menetou-Salon, a family domaine closely associated with quality Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire. The estate has helped raise the profile of the appellation through precise, terroir-focused wines that highlight freshness, minerality, and regional character.
