“Western France (such as Bordeaux and, in this case, Perigord) makes brilliant white wines with blends of sauvignon and semillon like this. Here, for instance, sauvignon blanc gives us grapefruit acidity and grassy freshness while, typical of semillon, lime influenced, lanolin texture with apple, pear and melon also figures prominently.”
France is without doubt the world’s supreme wine-producing country, unmatched for the finesse, style and sheer diversity of its wines. France’s revered wine regions form a roll of honour beyond compare. The enduring appeal of France’s classic wine styles turns on the peculiarly French – and often controversial – concept of terroir, the belief in wine with a ‘sense of place’, with flavours and textures.
