I wasn’t entirely convinced by this sauvignon blanc from François Chidaine in Touraine. It opens to a typically sauvignon blanc tropical aroma, but overlaid with a green streak. The palate is medium bodied with a bitter edge. Neither Sancerre, nor NZ in styling, it presented as an amalgam of the two. Rating: Acceptable to Good. Abv: N/A. Price: $20s.
