Pascal Jolivet Attitude Sauvignon 2006

Loire, FranceAttitude comes from low yielding (for a Vin de Pays) of 60 hl/ha in Touraine. As always the minerality jumps at you with bits of seaweed and chalk. Jolivet looks for balance of acidity and integration which you get in the slightly less acidic, 2006 harvest. The style is fresh with delicate notes of smoky mineral, grapefruit, green apple skin citrus and white peach. It's medium bodied with more citrus-apple notes in the finish. Think oysters, Dungeness crab, halibut or veal.Tasted: 06 November 2007Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
