Tête de Linotte Touraine Sauvignon Blanc 2020 Loire Valley White Wine 75cl

Tête de Linotte is made of Sauvignon from vineyards just to the East of the town of Tours. Grapes are sourced from carefully-selected organically certified vineyards on clay, chalk and flint soils.

Sauvignon Blanc is the key grape variety of the Tourraine appellation. A continental climate, a combination of cold winters and warm summers paired with a clay-limestone soil allow perfect healthy grapes used for this cuvée.

The grapes are gently pressed, then the must settled up to 24 hours. The fermentation started in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine is bottled in March to preserve the characteristic of the Sauvignon Blanc fruits.
