Domaine du Salvard Cheverny Blanc (750ml)

Domaine du Salvard has been a working domaine since 1898, through five hardworking generations of the Delaille family. Today, all forty-two hectares of vineyards are farmed by the brother team of Emmanuel and Thierry Delaille, with help from their father Gilbert. They have carried on the traditions established by their ancestors, producing a true, classic Cheverny that is both simple and elegant. Their attention is on growing fresh, lively Sauvignon Blanc, deeply rooted in the sand, clay, and limestone plains of northeastern Touraine.

The Appellation Origine Controllee Cheverny was created in 1993.  The Sauvignon Blancs produced here in the Middle Loire AOC definitely gives the more famous appellations of the Centre Loire; Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé, a run or their money.
