A word from the winemaker :
A pleasant, lively, elegant, fruity and fresh wine.
— Thomas L.
Nothing stops this variety !
Originally from Bordeaux, Sauvignon has been crossing borders for a very long time. It is the third most cultivated variety for white wine making in France, and thrives far and wide abroad, for example in South Africa, Australia and even New Zealand, where it is immensely successful. It is related to Cabernet Sauvignon, but has a quite unique character making well-structured, sinewy wines, packed with aroma.
Meticulous selection
In Pays d’Oc, this variety with its strong character has found terroirs that enable it to live up to its reputation. Roche Mazet selects wines from plots on the regions terraces with different traits that enhance the quality of the blends. This Sauvignon varietal, clearly branded Roche Mazet, is a carefully and accurately constituted mosaic that demonstrates all the aromatic breadth of this grape variety.
An invigorating experience
Roche Mazet Sauvignon has a bright pale yellow robe with green tints. On the nose, delicate aromas abound of white flowers, boxwood and exotic fruits. On the palate, it is well-balanced, elegant and very lively and fresh.
9°C
Served chilled at 9°C (48°F), this dry white wine with its lovely balanced fruit can be served as an aperitif and is an ideal match for shellfish platters, grilled fish, as well as desserts such as red fruit tarts. For fans of Japanese food, Roche Mazet Sauvignon is also a great choice, especially if sushi is on the menu !
