Winemaking Notes

The Fournier Père et Fils MMM Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is crafted from carefully selected grapes grown in the prestigious vineyards of Oisly, Couddes, and Thenay in the Loire Valley. The vines are planted on distinctive clay and sand soils, which impart unique mineral characteristics to the wine. Following harvest, the grapes undergo gentle pressing to preserve the delicate aromatics and fresh fruit character. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures to retain the vibrant citrus and tropical fruit notes whilst maintaining the wine's natural acidity. The winemaking approach emphasises minimal intervention, allowing the terroir and varietal expression to shine through, resulting in a pure, authentic representation of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc.

Vintage Conditions

The 2024 vintage in the Loire Valley presented favourable conditions for Sauvignon Blanc production. The growing season benefited from a balanced combination of warm, sunny days and cool nights, which allowed the grapes to develop optimal ripeness whilst retaining their characteristic fresh acidity. Adequate rainfall during the spring months ensured healthy vine growth, followed by drier conditions leading up to harvest, concentrating flavours and aromatics in the fruit. The harvest timing was crucial, with grapes picked at peak maturity to capture the intense blackcurrant bud, grapefruit, and white peach aromas that define this exceptional vintage. These ideal conditions have produced a wine of remarkable freshness, intensity, and balance.
