2017 Bailly~Lapierre, Saint~Bris Sauvignon Blanc
The appellation of Saint-Bris in Northern Burgundy is the only appellation in Burgundy allowed to grow Sauvignon Blanc. That makes Saint-Bris something of an oddity for Burgundy in that it is made only from Sauvignon blanc and Sauvignon gris, rather than the Chardonnay of Chablis and white Burgundies.
This wine has a p ale gold color. The nose offers a blend of white fruits with a hint of fresh herbs. After a few minutes of aeration, the aromatic palette changes to a floral and fruity style with a hint of citrus and blackcurrant flowers. The wine is fresh with a delicate touch of minerality with the richness of white fruits. It is both floral and fruity in the end.
This is a Sauvignon Blanc for those who find most New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs to o fruity, but are looking for something similar.
Food pairings for this wine are Oysters, Clams, Fish, Shellfish. Suggested cheese pairings: Feta, Chevre, Brie, Gruyere, Havarti, Mozzarella, Ricotta.
