Saint Pourçain: Cuvée Printanière 2010

Very pale, clear and dry white wine with a faint note of elderflower on the nose. Mid-palate, there is wonderfully crisp, citric fruit backed by brine and flint undertones with a clean, fresh finish.

Saint Pourçain: Cuvée Printanière 2010

The white Saint Pourçain ‘Cuvée Printanière’ comes from an idiosyncratic but harmonious blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Aligoté and, local speciality, Trésallier. It has subtle citrus aromas, fresh, zesty fruit flavours and a crisp and clean finish.

What others think of this wine...

Matthew Jukes - Daily Mail, 15/11/2011 says:

This spritely white is made from aligote, chardonnay and Sauvignon blanc, a cocktail of zingy white grapes that entrances the senses. Drink as an aperitif or with goats cheese starters or crustacea.
