Domaine Jacky Marteau - France
Sauvignon 2019
Description
Its bright robe is tinted with pale yellow. The nose offers an intense “fruit basket” dominated by citrus scents with a note of blackcurrant bud. In the mouth, all is suppleness and elegance. The final spicy note emphasizes the freshness and the generous length of this Touraine Sauvignon.
