Dm Des Coutures Saumur Blanc 2019 750ml
On the palate, there are fresh, vibrant flavors of green apple, pear and nectarine. Offering subtle touches of orange and lemon, there is a refreshing underlying mineral component in its structure which adds to its allure. Round and lively, this wine would augment any fish or chicken dish and, maybe, grilled meats in a pinch, too.
Saumur Blanc is the appellation for the still, dry white wines of Saumur, at the heart of France's Loire Valley wine region. The title represents an annual production of roughly two million liters of Chenin Blanc based wines.
Known here as Pineau de la Loire, Chenin Blanc is required to constitute at least 80 percent of any Saumur Blanc wine. The use of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc for the balance is increasing, as is oak fermentation and maturation.
