  • Loire Valley
    PREVIEWCOPY Introduction Previewing this guidebook? If you are previewing this guidebook in advance of purchase, please check out our enhanced preview, which will give you a deeper look at this guidebook. Wine guides for the ultra curious, Approach Guides take an in-depth look at a wine region’s grapes, appellations and vintages to help you discover wines that meet your preferences. The Loire Valley — featuring a compelling line-up of distinctive grape varieties, high quality winemaking and large production volumes — is home to some of France’s most impressive wines. Nevertheless, it remains largely overlooked by the international wine drinking public. This makes the region a treasure trove of exceptional values, just waiting to be discovered. What’s in this guidebook • Grape varieties. We describe the Loire’s primary red and white grape varieties and where they reach their highest expressions. • Vintage ratings. We offer a straightforward vintage ratings table, which affords high-level insight into the best and most challenging years for wine production. • A Loire Valley wine label. We explain what to look for on a Loire Valley wine label and what it tells you about what’s in the bottle. • Map and appellation profiles. Leveraging our map of the region, we provide detailed pro- files of appellations from all five of the Loire’s sub-regions (running from west to east): Pays Nantais, Anjou, Saumur, Touraine and Central Vineyards. For each appellation, we describe the prevailing terroir, the types of wine produced and what makes them distinctive. • A distinctive approach. This guidebook’s approach is unique: rather than tell you what specific bottle of wine to order by providing individual bottle reviews, it gives the information you need to make informed wine choices on any list.

  • Refreshing Whites George Fistonich of Villa Maria Started Championing the Grape and Exporting Wine to Australia and the UK
    Sauvignon Blanc grape is a very old grape variety from southwestern France. It is still grown in Bordeaux, where it became one of the parent grapes to Cabernet Sauvignon and helps make Sauternes, and in the Loire Valley, where it makes grassy, mineral-driven wines of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume. But it is in New Zealand where it produces the global standard for the grape with its generous personality, vibrant tropical fruit, and breezy freshness. It was first brought to New Zealand in the early 1900s, but started to gain traction in the 1970s when people like Refreshing Whites George Fistonich of Villa Maria started championing the grape and exporting wine to Australia and the UK. In the June 2021 2000s, brands like Kim Crawford and Matua put Marlborough SB on the map, while new boutique players emerged as leaders in quality and sustainability. Today, there are about 350 wineries in Marlborough (about the same as Napa Valley), producing two-thirds of NZ wines. Wine exports have doubled since 2012 and gone up 6x since 2000. In this kit we explore three distinct expressions of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc from two small, family- owned wineries: Orchard Lane, produced by winemaker, Kate Aclund in the Wairau Valley, and Barker’s Marque Orchard Lane Woolpack Three Brooms Winery in Awatere.
