Sauvignon Blanc
LIGHT-BODIED, CITRUS, GOOSEBERRY, ELDERFLOWER, MINERAL, NO OAK
Michel Laroche planted Mas la Chevalière near Béziers in 1996, convinced that the Languedoc hills — Mediterranean sun, limestone soils, and the cooling influence of the Hérault valley — could produce Sauvignon Blanc with real precision. The 2025 vintage tested that: a mid-August heatwave accelerated ripening in the early white varieties, and across the Languedoc most of the Sauvignon was picked before the middle of the month. Yields came in down, but the early-harvested whites held their freshness.
Four months in stainless steel keeps the fermentation character intact. No oak, no battonage, nothing to blunt the citrus edge.
PAIRINGS :
| Grilled branzino with herbs | citrus and mineral notes parallel the lean, clean fish |
| Goat cheese salad | classic Sauvignon pairing, the acidity cuts the richness |
| Steamed mussels in white wine | the wine's liveliness and minerality suit broth-forward shellfish |
