The Bougrier clan have been Sauvignon Blanc experts in the Loire Valley (the grape’s spiritual home) since 1885. Today, seasoned winemaker Noël Bougrier carries on his family’s proud tradition with his ever-popular Abbesse.
In a region known for world-class whites like Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé (which can carry price tags upwards of $30), Abbesse stands out, thanks to its fine quality and value. This latest release comes from the great 2020 growing season. According to the Central Loire Valley’s trade association, “2020 is truly a vintage full of promise” and “the wines have displayed remarkable fullness and concentration.” So you’re in for a real treat with Noël’s fresh release.
Look for leap-from-the-glass aromas of grassy citrus, plus a lovely, ripe peachiness on the palate and a zesty lime finish. It’s a go-to aperitif and equally tasty served with its traditional (and delicious) companion, goat cheese.
This perennial favorite always flies off our cellar shelves, and given the quality of the vintage, we expect it to sell more quickly than normal. Secure your share today.
