The diversity of grape varieties and the richness of the terroirs allow a complete and varied range of wines.

AOP Touraine is an appellation d’origine protégée (official designation) in the Loire Valley region in France that produces dry white wines. The vineyards surrounding the town of Tours lie in some of the most elegantly breathtaking scenery in all of France. the Vignoble Gibault vineyards are found to the south of the city of Tours, planted on the age-old terraces of the Cher River. The region around the city of Tours is known for making Sauvignon Blanc (sometimes blended with Sauvignon Gris) with razor sharp acidity and mineral qualities imparted from the chalky soils. Typical flavours and aromas of lime, green grass, and some richer notes of white peach, and ruby red grapefruit.

Gorgeous vibrant nose, intensely aromatic with white flower aromas and a hint of lemon peel. Clean entry, with a nice minerality on the palate, a fine blend of supple, rounded flavours with underlying notes of blackcurrant and passion fruit. A long chalky finish. A thirst-quenching style.
