The wine region of Touraine
Signature Sauvignon as king of Touraine whites (~80% of plantings): dry, expressive with notes of citrus, green apple, gooseberry, white flowers, exotic fruit and a touch of boxwood, lively acidity — ideal aperitif. Gamay as a juicy, crunchy red (cherry, raspberry, discreet tannins), more structured Cabernet Franc (bell pepper, raspberry) and dense Côt to complete it. Chenin and Chardonnay among whites. Vast Loire AOC between Blois and Tours, tuffeau and flint.
The wine region of Loire Valley
Kingdom of lively, dry whites and fine sparklers. Mineral, taut Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé) with citrus and gunflint notes. Multiform Chenin Blanc (Vouvray, Savennières, Layon): straight dry, floral off-dry or noble sweet honey-quince. Saline, iodised Muscadet (Melon B.
The word of the wine: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
