2013 William Fevre Saint-Bris Sauvignon

The small village of Saint-Bris produces a wine highly unusual for Burgundy, as it is the only white Burgundy AOC made from Sauvignon Blanc. Brilliant very pale straw colour with a light but distinctive greenish tinge around the edges and a watery hue. Aromas of pear and fresh herbs with a stony overlay are followed by some faint spice. Light and fresh but with a rounded pebble stone like textural feel the palate features flavours of pear, limes and stony mineral over a background of fresh herbs. Dry flinty finish with crisp acidity and an aftertaste of limes, subtle pear, wet stone, herbs and mineral. Drink over the next 3-4 years. Alc 12%
