The Sauvignon from Château de Fontenay embodies the generosity and elegance of Touraine wines. Nestled on a sun-kissed clay-limestone hillside, this wine is the product of a terroir where every grape reaches its full potential. This specific soil, rich in minerals, gives the wine a rare aromatic complexity and a persistent freshness that delights from the first sip.

On the nose, this Sauvignon reveals a captivating bouquet of white flowers and yellow fruits, with delicate hints of vineyard peach and melon. On the palate, the charm continues: a harmony of roundness and vivacity, where flavors of green apple and citrus unfold gracefully. A touch of minerality enhances the whole, a tribute to its clay-limestone origins.

The winemaker’s expertise shines through here: a meticulous winemaking process preserves the purity and aromatic expression of each vintage. With its 13% alcohol content, this wine is perfectly balanced—neither too bold nor too subtle. Its elegant structure and confident character hint at an interesting aging potential for those curious about its evolution over time.
