Description

The ‘Long Bec’ Touraine Chenonceaux is a delicous, soft and complex Sauvignon Blanc from a relatively new appellation in the Loire Valley.  Produced by Domaine des Echardieres, this is a wonderfully aromatic Sauvignon with apricot and blackcurrant leaf on the nose and soft, exotic fruits on the palate. 


The Touraine Chenonceaux appellation was created in 2011 for the best vineyards sites spread across the 27 communes on both sides of the Cher. It encompasses both red and whites and controls both yields and release dates, with the whites only allowed to be released after 1st May following harvest.  In theory this allows for more time on lees and therefore added depth and complexity for the whites.

Riesling

The Hanewald-Schwerdt Riesling Sekt Trocken has a steely lemon tinged nose with red apple and peach underpinned by zesty lime acidity, resulting in a lovely refreshing style.  This is by no means bone dry though, and with 23grams of residual sugar this a fruitier style that is a great alternative to Prosecco for those looking for something a little different.
