The Buisson Renard release is made from grapes with a cool, mid-slope terroir on the southwest side of the Saint-Andelain slope. The soils are a mixture of clay and flint, imparting richness and mineral complexity and depth. This was barrel fermented and aged in Dagueneau’s bespoke, cigar-shaped barrels (450 and 600 litres) which are designed to increase lees contact.

Richly aromatic with distinctive lime, elderflower, ginger and honeysuckle aromas. Plenty of tension, masses of concentration and curves in the right places with a wildly long finish! Incredible and worthy of long-term cellaring.

A crisp, textural and beautifully expressive white wine that grows in almost every wine growing country across the world. In the hands of a great winemaker, Sauvignon Blanc can rival the very best white wines of the world with its complex aromas and flavours that you won't find in other white varieties. The expressions from Sancerre and Bordeaux set the benchmark the world over, using oak as a medium for body and spice, and in great Sauvignon Blanc you'll find notes of white florals, gentle herbals, creme fraiche, cassis, melon, complex citrus, pear, gooseberry, vanilla, cashew and hints of passionfruit.
