Winemaker Description – Vintage 2025
The Roc de l’Abbaye Sauvignon Blanc Val de Loire 2025 is crafted by winemaker Florian from carefully selected vineyards in Oisly, close to the Cher River in the Val de Loire. This wine receives the same rigorous selection, vinification, and maturation as prestigious Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé — at a fraction of the price. The result is a crisp, mineral-driven Sauvignon Blanc with intense aromatics and exceptional freshness that captures the essence of Loire Valley terroir.
The nose opens with green apple, field grass, white peach, and bosc pear, complemented by bright citrus and grapefruit. On the palate, a steely texture and chalky minerality ride above lively acidity, finishing clean with lemon zest.
Pairing Suggestions
- Classic Loire: Fresh goat cheese (chèvre) or a warm crottin de Chavignol.
- Seafood: Oysters, grilled white fish, fried calamari, or shrimp ceviche.
- Light dishes: Fresh salads, asparagus, zucchini, or light pasta with herbs.

Florian selected the Oisly vineyards close to the Cher River to ensure freshness and intense aromatics in this Loire Sauvignon Blanc. This grapes receive the same rigorous selection, vinification and maturation as the ones from Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. The resulting wine is vibrant and fresh with white fruits, pear and apricot and finishes with trademark minerality and balanced acidity.
Pale colored with white gold gleams. The nose offers expressive notes of white flowers, citrus leaves, plus lemony peppery notes evocative of szechuan pepper. In the mouth it is fresh, taut, with crisp acidity that associates citrus aromas with fresh fruit and a mouth-watering salinity. Notes of white pepper and spices appear on the fresh, persistent and delicately textured finish.
