NICOLAS IDIART VAL DE LOIRE SAUVIGNON BLANC 750ML

Nicolas Idiart Val de Loire Sauvignon Blanc

Discover the vibrant, refreshing character of the Loire Valley with Nicolas Idiart Val de Loire Sauvignon Blanc, an elegant French white wine that delivers classic Sauvignon Blanc freshness with exceptional value. Crafted by Nicolas Idiart, a passionate Loire Valley winemaker known for his artisanal approach, this wine showcases the lively citrus-driven personality of the region.

Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, the wine comes from mature vines averaging around 35 years old. The vineyards are planted on sandy clay soils, helping preserve the variety's natural freshness while contributing to its bright, expressive fruit profile. (Maison Idiart)

The nose is wonderfully aromatic, revealing grapefruit, lemon, lime, white peach, fresh herbs, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, vibrant citrus and stone-fruit flavors are supported by lively acidity and a subtle mineral character. Notes of lemongrass and fresh-cut greenery add a classic Loire Sauvignon Blanc freshness, while the palate remains balanced, clean, and energetic. (Maison Idiart)

Maison Idiart uses concrete-tank vinification, with controlled skin contact before pressing, followed by cool-temperature fermentation. The wine is then aged on its fine lees, helping build additional harmony, texture, and aromatic intensity while preserving the crisp character of the Sauvignon Blanc. (Maison Idiart)

The finish is bright, clean, and refreshing, making this an exceptionally versatile bottle for both casual sipping and food-focused occasions. Pair it with fresh oysters, grilled shrimp, mussels, ceviche, sushi, goat cheese, salads, asparagus, fresh herbs, or light seafood dishes. It is equally appealing served well chilled as an aperitif.

For lovers of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, Nicolas Idiart Val de Loire Sauvignon Blanc offers an inviting way to experience the fresh, mineral-driven style of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc without the formality or price associated with the region's most famous appellations.
