It will not remind anyone of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. The green notes are in the background, while the intense lemony aromas and fruit like green apple and grapefruit come out in front, giving it freshness combined with a very mineral chalky character. With its acidity levels you feel it is dry to the bone, very refreshing and relatively light and...
“Les Fossiles” is vinified in stainless-steel vats and left on fine lees for six months, acquiring a nicely oily body.

The small appellation of origin, just off the banks of the Loire River, can offer just as pleasing and enjoyable Pinot Noir as the neighbouring Sancerre.
