Tonight we’re reviewing another French sauvignon blanc.  This one comes from Guy Saget Estates, located on the right bank of the Loire in appellation district of Touraine Mesland.  The vineyards span 80 hectares and are planted on two types of soil: sand and clay with some limestone.

La Petite Perriere Sauvignon Blanc

The color of this wine is a deep golden color, darker than sauvignon blanc often is.  The aromas are of melon, soft peach, citrus and mineral with moderate intensity.  In the mouth it’s peach, melon, tart apple and a hint of citrus.  The acidity is sufficient, and is most noticeable on the finish, where it brings a tangy citrus characteristic.  There’s also a touch of melon on the finish.

This is a nice, food-friendly sauvignon blanc.
