Simonnet-Febvre 2006 Sauvignon de Saint-Bris (Saint-Bris)

Country: France / Sauvignon de Saint-Bris
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Burgundy
Winery: Simonnet-Febvre / Saint-Bris

Fatter than any Loire Sauvignon Blanc, this has some rich fruit, flavors of currants, an oily texture and intriguing candy flavors. There is a structure of green apple skins, but the wine is essentially light, fresh and instantly pleasing.
