Francis Blanchet Calcite Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Domaine Blanchet offers one of the most expressive, unadulterated tastes of Sauvignon Blanc, choosing to raise his wines only in tank—so what you savor with every glass is the most natural expression of “smoky” Sauvignon there is. ‘Calcite’ is Sauvignon Blanc by way of Chablis! Here Francis Blanchet selects vineyards rich in chalky marl (specifically Kimmeridgian, for the geologists among us) for a white wine that screams sea shells and days by the beach — so much energy, so much true “minerality.” A gorgeous partner for fruits de mer in all their wonderful variety.
