La Raie

2009 Reuilly 100% Sauvignon Blanc

Claude Lafond La Raie is a magnificent expression of Sauvignon Blanc from the esteemed Reuilly region. This white wine showcases a brilliant pale hue that hints at its vibrant character. On the nose, it bursts with lively, fresh aromas reminiscent of citrus fruits and green apples, enticing the senses with each swirl of the glass. The palate is beautifully balanced with bright acidity that dances harmoniously, bringing forth a refreshing mouthfeel. A distinct mineral quality underlines the wine, adding a delightful complexity to the overall experience. Its fruit intensity is pronounced yet not overwhelming, making it an exceptional match for light seafood dishes or enjoyed on its own during a sunny day. This delightful vintage from 2009 impresses with its clean finish, leaving a lingering impression that speaks of the terroir's authenticity.
