Régis Jouan - Menetou-Salon - Blanc - 2022

Wine:

The 2022 white Menetou-Salon delivers a Sauvignon Blanc of great brilliance, pure and finely crafted, without any oaky character. Here, we find the most striking dimension of the varietal: its mineral character complemented by notes of white flowers and citrus zest. A fresh, particularly elegant white wine, it pairs delightfully with raw, marinated, or grilled fish.

Vinification:

Mechanical harvesting, vinification in stainless steel vats, aged on fine lees.

Color:

Bright pale yellow with silver highlights.

Nose:

A very pure Sauvignon with lots of brightness through wisteria fragrances and no woody aspect.

Palate:

This cuvée, with its pure, mineral and elegant structure, reveals a chiselled character, all on a pure whole.

Temperature:

Serve between 10 and 12°C.

Food and wine pairing:

Aperitif, seafood, raw or marinated fish.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2028
