From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

For years, our most beloved white wine from the Touraine region of France. The Gibault family's vines are situated along the banks of the Cher River, providing them with ample sunshine, sufficient moisture, and cool nights. This makes the final harvest of the Sauvignon Blanc grapes unique, allowing them to develop a strong vigour from the beautiful environment. The vines, some 40 years old, are planted in nutrient-rich soil rich in limestone and other beneficial qualities. All this is essential for cultivating a superb Sauvignon Blanc, and they have succeeded, harvesting them partially by hand. This ensures that only the finest bunches make it into the bottle, a fact that is evident in the pure, clean style of this white wine.

Domaine Gibault's harvest is renowned throughout the Touraine region, with exceptionally fine bunches transported in small crates to the press. Upon arrival, the grapes are inspected again, and the finest bunches are pressed very gently. The beautifully fresh juice is truly high-quality. Isn't it a Sancerre? No, it isn't, but it does have some of the characteristics of the iconic Loire Valley wine. The entire wine is aged for a very long time in Domaine Gibault's cellars to develop as much rich flavor as possible. The wine is brought to its final form in a relaxed and unhurried manner, and we clearly feel the difference.

We taste this in this white wine, as it is pure, exceptionally fresh, and ripe in both flavor and aroma—a true masterpiece of craftsmanship from the Gibault family. In short, a superb Loire Valley wine made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes. This makes this Gibault Sauvignon Blanc a highly aromatic wine with optimal fruit concentration. The aroma reveals aromas of green apples and boxwood. Very fresh and inviting, juicy and flavorful. Furthermore, this Gibault Sauvignon Blanc Touraine has hints of fresh white fruit, apple and pear, and a touch of citrus peel! The finish is rich in mineral notes and wonderfully refreshing.
