L'Artiste Sauvignon 2024 - Famille Bougrier

Wine Famille Bougrier - The L’Artiste cuvée pays tribute to Jean-Claude Bougrier, a leading figure of the family’s fourth generation and a true enthusiast of Loire wines. Nicknamed ‘the professor’ for his exacting standards and determination, he profoundly shaped the style of the estate’s wines through his constant quest for precision and the expression of the terroir. Produced between the Sèvre Nantaise and Maine rivers, this Sauvignon Blanc is vinified at the Caves de la Nantaise, in the heart of a terroir characterised by light, rocky and stony soils that enhance the grape variety’s aromatic expression. The grapes are harvested at perfect ripeness and then vinified using traditional methods. The nose is intensely expressive, with aromas of citrus, lemon and grapefruit, accompanied by floral notes and freshly cut herbs. The palate is fresh, rich and particularly mouth-watering, offering a pleasant balance between liveliness and fruitiness. An accessible and expressive Sauvignon Blanc, perfect with fish in cream sauce, smoked salmon, white meats or goat’s cheese.
