With its distinctive herbaceous edge, the wine has a grapefruit-and-citrus character that offers a bright acidity. It has density and richness, fruity and forward.

Certainly crisp, but also showing some tropical fruit characters, this is clean, ripe Sauvignon Blanc. The aftertaste has hints of white currants. Screwcap.

Saint-Bris to the west of Chablis is noted for its Sauvignon Blanc. This wine has an attractive grassy character, showing good tangy freshness, orange zest and grapefruit. Screwcap.

Fatter than any Loire Sauvignon Blanc, this has some rich fruit, flavors of currants, an oily texture and intriguing candy flavors. There is a structure of green apple skins, but the wine is essentially light, fresh and instantly pleasing.

In a piece of French wine shorthand, the new appellation of Saint-Bris takes in the old Sauvignon de Saint-Bris wines. The style, though, hasn’t changed: an attractive, if rustic type, with crisp gooseberry and grapefruit flavors and a fresh burst of acidity. Screwcap.

Sauvignon Blanc’s Burgundy enclave of Saint-Bris produces a round version of the grape, leaning towards yellow fruit flavors, with herbaceous aromas. This is fruity and can be consumed now.
