DOMAINE OCTAVIE SAUVIGNON BLANC 2019
Description
Color: pale yellow color, brilliant, with gold reflections. The nose: the notes of Sauvignon explode on the nose. We breathe this intense nose, subtle and careful balance of white flowers, citrus and red fruits. In the mouth: the attack is supple with lots of freshness. We savor its lively body where we find the crunchiness of the fresh fruit. The wine is round with a touch of fat, good aromatic persistence and length. The mouth is harmonious.

Vineyard
The DOMAINE OCTAVIE is located on a plateau between the Loire and the Cher, in the village of OISLY, in the east-side of the TOURAINE Appellation. The climate is oceanic with continental tendencies. Winters are quite mild, and severe frost is exceptional (rarely below -10°C). Summers are never excessively hot. The autumn is usually fine and very sunny which is particularly suitable for the Sauvignon grape variety. Soils are composed of sands on flint clays.
