Lower ABV Venture off the beaten Loire Valley path to discover the DELICIOUS Satuvignon Blanc. The Coteaux de Giennois appellation is small - under 200 acres in total - and tends to get lost in the shadow of nearby Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume. Owned by brothers Fernand and Jean-Francois Thibaut, Villargeau is the top producer in the region and crafts crackling, fresh, Sauvignon Blanc from vines growing on fractured slate and gravel.
You'll find big aromas of mixed citrus - grapefruit, lemon, lime - with a burst of cut grass and flinty stones in the background. On the palate it's clear, juicy, and fresh, with green grape and white grapefruit flavors getting complexity from the gunflint and smoke notes that made Pouilly-Fume so famous. Finishes crisp and clean and dry.
