Domaine Laporte Menetou Salon Le Grand Argentier, Loire
100% Sauvignon Blanc. Menetou Salon is an appellation close to Sancerre.  The fruit of a clay-limestone soil that brings out all the character of Sauvignon Blanc, this wine is both fruity & pleasantly fresh. “Le Grand Argentier” is elegant, smooth & has a long taste. Its beautiful aromatic intensity expresses citrus touches and flowers. Ideal with asparagus, shellfish or fresh cheese.

Domaine des Anges Cherubin Viognier, Ventoux
100% Viognier. Complex, expressive & true to type with some hints of box hedge, exotic fruits & tinned apricots finishing with the aroma of orange blossom. Rich & fleshy, nicely balanced on the palate between richness & freshness. Excellent drunk young, but will become increasingly honeyed with time.
