Description

This Touraine-Oisly is a hidden gem. While the name may not be as well-known as those of the greats Sancerre or Pouilly-Fumé, the quality and authenticity of this Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire are outstanding, especially considering its modest price.

The wine is the pride of Domaine de Marcé. It's one of the few producers in Touraine-Oisly, a small sub-appellation of the much larger Touraine. The area—just south of Blois, nestled between the Loire and Cher rivers—has only been officially recognized as an AOP since 2011, but the Godet family has six generations of experience there.

Winemaker Christophe Godet knows better than anyone how suitable the terroir here is for unique, high-quality wine. He cultivates some 35 hectares of vineyards, predominantly planted with Sauvignon Blanc vines on sandy and clay soils. This blend gives his wines elegance, intensity, and weight.

And you can taste that in the Coulée Galante: a delightful, classy white wine! With its recognizable, fresh Sauvignon signature, but also remarkably soft and rich, it's also a superb table wine. Try it classic with young goat cheese, green salads, or fish, or more adventurously with slightly spicy Asian dishes.
