Domaine Fouassier
Domaine Fouassier 'Les Grands Champs' 2020, Sancerre, France - 1.5l
Few white wines strike the immaculate balance of striking aroma and delicate taste as this Sauvignon blanc. The bold aroma of lemon and citrus will create an immediate impact upon popping the cork of Domaine Fouassier, though this is tempered by an appealing hint of butter. Upon the palate, this wine truly bursts into life. The finish is crisp and refreshing, bringing to mind a summer's day surrounded by recently-trimmed grass cuttings. This complemented - and enhanced - by a fruity gooseberry flavour, paired with the merest suggestion of a twist of lime. Truly a classic Sauvignon blanc that is sure to please any enthusiast.

Sauvignon Blanc
WHAT IT GOES WITH
Thanks for the distinctive, crisp taste of this wine, it can comfortable be consumed alone. However, the light and citrus-hinted finish also pairs exceptionally well with white fish or rich goat's cheese. Embrace the best of both worlds by applying a thick and creamy sauce to a fish dish to truly bring out the unique charms of this wine.
VINEYARD
The Sancerre region is intrinsically linked with the harvesting of Sauvignon blanc grapes, and the Fouassier family are arguably the most celebrated clan of the territory. Survivors of the 19th Century phylloxera epidemic that decimated the region, the Fouassiers have retained their family business ever since. At present, Jean-Michel and Pierre form the fraternity at the head of the family, ably assisted by their sons Paul and Benoit. Domaine Fouassier is not simply a historical house, however. This vineyard looks to the future, achieving organic certification for their products and becoming one of just three biodynamic vineyards in Sancerre.

A wooden box can make your magnum look even more special, especially if you want to personalise it for a gift. We can engrave up to 50 characters, in one of five different fonts, to the front of the wooden box.
We always intend to despatch any orders on the same day, on a next day delivery service, assuming checkout is completed before 1pm as this gives us enough time to prepare the package.
You can also track your order throughout the process, ensuring that you’re home to accept it or make alternative arrangements with DPD.
If ordering as a gift, please provide the recipient’s address and a contact telephone number so they are notified a delivery is coming. While the arrival of a magnum will surely be a welcome surprise, we want to ensure somebody is available to sign for the package. We’ll keep you updated about the delivery progress, and supply a purchase invoice that doubles as a receipt for your financial records to your email address. We never include an invoice with the package in case it is a gift.
We rarely need to process returns, but in the improbable event that we need to do so, we will offer a full refund on any product returned in its original packaging and in a re-sellable condition. Unfortunately we cannot refund shipping costs.
