"Being as green as possible in my vineyards is very important to me. We try and use a very limited number of 'products' in the fields, and we also green harvest in order to optimize the quality of the grapes and minimize production per hectare. Finally, we use a technique called 'effeuillage' - the reduction of leafs to increase the sun and light exposure of the grapes. We have a great team here at Villebois, with Thierry Coutant who runs and supervises the vineyards, and Pascal Gibault, our other resident winemaker."

Very good SB. Went down very well with the two friends I was sharing with.

A very nice, clean Sauvignon, quite dry, probably best with food, and not too richly lemony. Lovely but on the expensive side for what it is

I didn't think this lived up to the expectations created by the reviews. It was a little too flat in the mouth for my personal taste.

I normally prefer new world whites as I find French ones often rather acidic but this vdp Val de Loire is one of the best I've had recently - and at a very reasonable price
