Domaine de Villegeai 2006 WHITE France

Brothers Francois and Michel Quinton have turned little Domaine de Villegeai into a very sought-after Loire name. Celebrated - yet little-known - Coteaux du Giennois sits across the river from Sancerre and offers supreme value. Outstanding quality has seen the area recently awarded Appellation Controlee status but for now prices remain in your favour. With 2006 a "terrific vintage" (Joanna Simon) now's the time to sample this mouthwatering Sauvignon. "Bright straw colour with leap-from-the-glass aromas of gooseberry and lime and a touch of the flintiness that hallmarks top Loire whites. Concentrated lemon and grapefruit flavours and fresh minerally notes. A Loire classic to savour ... as an aperitif or alongside Dover sole and other fine seafood dishes."
