Holy Snail Sauvignon Blanc is pale yellow in colour with green tints. It has an expressive nose, marrying grapefruit, fresh lime and a subtle touch of tropical fruit. These bright fruits continue onto the palate, which is round, fleshy and framed by a delicate touch of sweetness. This is a beautifully crafted soft and perfumed Sauvignon Blanc.
If you are typically a lover of New Zealand Sauvignon, then you'll be delighted to try this little French gem. The Holy Snail is a match for just about any of them, and features in out top #3 best selling whites every month.
About
TYDY stands for Thierry Delaunay, the fifth-generation owner of Domaine Joël Delaunay, a true master winemaker who delivers this award winning Classic Old World Sauvignon that is a half way house from a Sancerre to a Kiwi, fruit driven style; lovely! Captivatingly fresh, beautifully balanced, long and full in the mouth, it unleashes many complex aromas (exotic fruits, blackcurrant buds, grapefruit, peach), as well as floral notes. A must have!
Vineyards: The grapes are bought in from long-standing growers, carefully selected by Thierry Delaunay. It is an 'IGP Valle de la Loire', so offers great value compared to an AOC wine.
Winemaking: The Holy Snail is blended from fine cuvées of Sauvignon Blanc from across the Touraine region of the Loire Valley. Once assembled and matured on fine lees, it expresses all the qualities of the richness and varieties of Loire’s terroirs which bring a complexity, elegance and finesse to this wine.
