Enjoy a $50 Jetsetter credit when spending $150 or more on Gilt Taste's Uncorked Collection.
Wine 101: Explore the Loire Valley with this trio of whites. Each comes from a different appellation in the valley: Vouvray, Sancerre and Pouilly Fume. The home of Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc, the Loire Valley is know for its clay and limestone “white” soils that give its wines a naturally high acidity and a flinty minerality.
Nose, palate and pairing:
Clos Palet Vouvray 2011: Made from 100% Chenin Blanc, this wine has a floral nose with hints of fresh almonds. It is medium bodied and well balanced on the palate. Pour it chilled with grilled fish, lemon roasted chicken or charred pork chops.
Couronne et Lions Pouilly Fume 2010: Pale yellow in color with silvery shimmer, this 100% Sauvignon Blanc is super aromatic with gooseberries and freshly cut grass. The palate is zippy at first, but then lends to crisp, fruity flavors of a classic Sauvignon Blanc. We love this wine with seasonal crudite, a creamy, cheesy quiche or roasted turkey club sandwich.
Brochard Sancerre Blanc 2011: Here’s a wine that will age well. It’s 100% Sauvignon Blanc that’s dry, fruity and the perfect match for freshly shucked oysters, traditional shrimp cocktail or tangy cheeses like a crottin of fresh goat cheese.
