Domaine Le Hitton Reserve 2004 WHITE France

Domaine le Hitton is a name to remember. It has the racy whistle-clean flavours of a good Loire Valley Sauvignon yet arrives in the UK at a considerably lower price. That's because it's from the Gascony region an insider's tip hailed by wine writers as one of France's last bastions of deliciously affordable high quality whites. Located off the beaten track Domaine le Hitton produces a reserve wine equal to any Bordeaux Sauvignon at a mouthwatering price. The family run cellar combines cool climate Sauvignon with Colombard to give crisp personality filled wine in a zippy Loire style. Bright gooseberry and lemon grass aromas with racy tongue-tingling citrus and freshly sliced green apple flavours. Not surprisingly this is superb as an aperitif.
