Tasting Notes

The 2014 Les Champs Libres is a Burgundy doppelgänger, which is quite some achievement given that it is 100% Sauvignon Blanc! It exudes tension with hints of white peach and lemon zest emerging with time. The palate is fresh and vibrant with gorgeous lemon peel, fresh lime, white peach and just a touch of stem ginger. Harmonious and intense, this is just a fabulous wine from la famille Guinaudeau, though be warned, it has that more-ish factor that will leave the bottle empty, so have back-up, just in case.
