Bordering Sancerre to the southwest, the commune of Menetou-Salon has quietly been making some of the Loire Valley's top value Sauvignon Blancs for many years. With a profile that falls somewhere between that taut and energetic character of Sancerre, and the more assertive Pouilly-Fume, Menetou-Salon is one heck of a delicious option for the discerning Sauvignon Blanc drinker. Assertive on the nose with hints of citrus, peach and white flowers. When swirled the bouquet further reveals its aromatic potential and complexity. The initial taste is crisp and full, soft yet well balanced thanks to its acidity. Notes of white flowers compliment the fruit aromas beautifully.
