L'Escarelle Sauvignon Blanc 2003

From the long hot summer of 2003 this 100% Sauvignon is aromatic, fresh and from France's sun-soaked Midi ... scene of something of a wine revolution in recent years that has attracted big name interest and investment.

"The Vins de Pays d'Oc is the region to watch ... the French success story of the past decade, " wrote Joanna Simon, whilst the Independent reckons the region is responsible for "some of the most interesting terroir-driven wines in France".

Pale colour with yellow, green hues. Aromas of tropical fruits and melon with a citrus-fruit palate and clean finish. Serve slightly chilled, this is perfect as an aperitif or with salads and grilled fish.
