2025 Maison Gaucher Menetou Salon Loire Valley

The 2025 Maison Gaucher Menetou-Salon is a fresh and elegant Loire Valley white made from Sauvignon Blanc, showcasing the classic character of Menetou-Salon’s limestone-rich soils. The nose is bright and aromatic, with notes of lemon, grapefruit, green apple, white peach, gooseberry, and white flowers, accented by a subtle flinty mineral character. On the palate, it is crisp and energetic, with vibrant acidity, juicy citrus and orchard-fruit flavors, and a clean, chalky finish with a touch of salinity. Refreshing yet nicely textured, it is an excellent match for oysters, goat cheese, shellfish, grilled fish, salads, and fresh vegetable dishes.
