Domaine du Salvard
Delaille Cheverny White Blend
Cheverny, Touraine, Loire Valley, France
nose; herby, sweet white peach, tiny bit of cat pee in best way possible. I think the chardonnay adds a bit of weight without detracting from nose/flavors. very nice,

Always a favorite Loire Valley white! Whoa! This is very reminiscent of a New Zealand SB! That cat box aroma/taste (I know that sounds weird) is standing up very proud! Although not quite the acidic finish from NZ. An excellent selection if you can accept the funk!

Acidity and bright. Citrus with mineralogy. Lovely pale pale yellow color. Really nice. Will buy again

Whatever the blend composition: SB dominates. Greenish yellow hued in color, intense vivid aromatics of lime & grapefruit, grassy, herbaceous, straw mingled w/ apple, flowers and candied pineapple. Searing acidity and bone dry. This wine packs a punch - caught me by surprise when we only envisioned a mere aperitif!

Pleasant blend of predominantly savignon blanc with some chard, which gives it a bit more heft and body. Light citrus notes, some straw and a clean finish. Very nice sipping summer wine.
