Delice

2012 Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc

Domaine Les Beaux Regards Delice is a remarkable Sauvignon Blanc hailing from the prestigious Sancerre region, known for producing some of the finest expressions of this varietal. This vintage from 2012 showcases a beautiful pale golden hue, inviting to the eye. On the nose, it reveals vibrant aromas of citrus fruits, particularly zesty lemon and aromatic grapefruit, paired with subtle notes of green apple and refreshing herbs, creating an invigorating bouquet. The palate is gracefully balanced with a medium body that offers a delightful creaminess, while the acidity shines bright and lively, delivering a mouthwatering freshness that enhances its crisp character. The wine's fruit intensity is prominent, providing a deliciously satiating experience, and it finishes with a hint of minerality that speaks to the terroir of Sancerre. As a delightful dry white, Domaine Les Beaux Regards Delice is a splendid choice for a variety of culinary pairings, making it an exceptional companion for seafood dishes or light salads.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
