La Girouette Sauvignon Blanc is a bright and approachable white from the sunny Languedoc region, produced by the multi-award-winning Foncalieu cooperative. Known for their expertise in agronomic research and terroir expression, Foncalieu craft wines that are fresh, expressive, and versatile, with this Sauvignon Blanc being a particularly staff-favourite example.
Tasting Notes:
Pale straw in the glass, the nose is lifted with classic herbal and leafy notes, intertwined with hints of tropical fruit. On the palate, crisp citrus flavours—lime, grapefruit, and a touch of lemon zest—drive a vibrant, refreshing finish. Light-bodied and zesty, this Sauvignon Blanc is lively yet balanced, making it effortless to enjoy.
Winemaking:
Grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to capture freshness and aromatic intensity. Cold fermentation in stainless-steel tanks preserves the varietal purity and bright acidity, with no oak influence, resulting in a clean, precise wine that highlights the character of Languedoc Sauvignon Blanc.
Food Pairing:
Perfect with lightly grilled fish, seafood salads, fresh goat’s cheese, or simply served chilled as a refreshing aperitif.
ABV: 11%
