Sauvignon Blanc, Abbotts & Delaunay

Description:
This 2024 Abbotts & Delaunay Sauvignon Blanc is a fresh and expressive white wine from sunny Southern France, bursting with vibrant aromas and a modern, aromatic style. On the nose, you'll discover an invigorating explosion of citrus and lime, combined with fresh green notes like boxwood and freshly cut grass. In the background, subtle nuances of passion fruit and white flowers provide extra elegance and refinement.

On the palate, the wine is crisp and mineral with a slightly tropical touch and a refreshing, lively finish. This combination of freshness and aromatic intensity makes it a typical modern Sauvignon Blanc that is approachable yet offers sufficient character and excitement. An excellent choice for lovers of fresh white wine with a distinct aroma and taste.

Drinking moment:
Perfect as an aperitif, with summer charcuterie boards or during a sunny afternoon on the terrace. Also ideal to serve with light dishes, where the fresh acidity and aromatic style beautifully enhance the flavors.

Fun fact:
Abbotts & Delaunay places great importance on aromatic purity. For this Sauvignon Blanc, the grapes are often harvested at night when temperatures are lower. This optimally preserves the fresh acidity and expressive aromas, resulting in a lively and energetic wine.

Winemaker:
Laurent Delaunay works with grapes sourced from cooler vineyards in the Pays d’Oc. This careful selection ensures that the aromas remain clear and the structure fresh. His style is precise and fruit-driven, with great attention to balance, finesse, and drinking pleasure.

Food pairing tip:
Delicious with oysters, goat cheese, ceviche, or a fresh salad with avocado and citrus. Also an excellent vegetarian combination with a quinoa salad with cucumber, mint, and feta. The vibrant freshness of the wine makes dishes taste extra sparkling and balanced.
