Fournier Père et Fils 2009 Grande Cuvée (Sancerre)

Country: France / Grande Cuvée
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Loire Valley
Winery: Fournier Père et Fils / Sancerre

One of the pair of top end wines from Fournier (the other is the Grande Cuvée from Pouilly-Fumé) this ripe and full wine is soft and rounded. The initial herbaceous character gets replaced by a more sophisticated, rich and ripe character, intense and a very good pairing for food.
