A wonderful and innovative blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Vermentino from Southern France.
Production
Both the Sauvignon and the Vermentino are planted on plots with ideal drainage conditions, on a mixture of silt, sand and alluvial deposit. The Sauvignon was harvested in late August, and the Vermentino from mid-September. Cold maceration on skins, followed by pressing and alcoholic fermentation on fine lees at a temperature of 16-18°C.

Tasting notes
A deliciously refreshing change from straight Sauvignon Blanc. Luscious exotic fruit aromas from the Vermentino are balanced by the clean, zingy fruit of Sauvignon, resulting in a wonderfully aromatic smooth dry white.
Food match
Best served chilled and ideal as an apéritif, and has enough acidity to work moules marinieres or creamy chicken dishes. The exotic flavours also complement Chinese and other oriental dishes.

Meet the producer
Like all good stories, that of Boutinot France is both long and a little bit complicated! Boutinot began as a tiny importer in 1980, specialising in French wines. Paul Boutinot himself began by personally selecting the wines from France, back in the UK he would unload the trailer by hand. And deliver the crates of wines to customers himself. But good things grow and by the end of the decade we had become a bigger and better company. A company that not only sought out great wines but made them too. After 10 years later, Boutinot France started in January 1990. The first office was in the middle of the vines in Julienas; perfectly located to navigate the Beaujolais and Macon regions on the quest to make beautiful wines.
