Guy Allion Pinot Noir"Les Parcs" 2017/18 [75cl] Val de Loire France

Unusually for a Touraine producer, Cedric Allion (son of Guy) makes around 40% red wine - far more than almost any of his neighbours but he admits he has a passion for making good reds, so why not?! This is a lovely example of Loire Pinot, really supple and soft with good fruit depth and rounded tannins. The wine sees 15% new oak in it's barrel aging which gives it good structure but still letting the strawberry & raspberry fruits come to the fore. There's a hint of richer, darker berry fruits there too with a dash of white pepper in the mix. This is a great drinker and is a good buy if you're looking for a red Sancerrre or even a Bourgogne Rouge without shelling out a small fortune.

Guy Allion's Pinot Noir is a great example from the Loire Valley. Made from biodynamically grown grapes, the wine is unoaked and delightfully fresh. Aromas are of ripe, almost sweet berry fruit and floral notes. Juicy strawberry flavours, refreshing acidity and the gentlest of tannins come together in this great value cool-climate Pinot Noir.

Guy Allion Sauvignon Blanc 2018 [75cl] Val de Loire France Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc. There are delicate aromas of elderflower and gooseberry with hints of peach and grass; it is fresh, light and perfectly piquant. It is dry and crisp on the palate with spades of minerality; it is a classic example of Touraine Sauvignon. It is great with salads, fish and light goat cheese dishes

Nicely balanced with a subtle floral and earthy fern nose; Notes of stony minerals and lemon provide delights to the palate. It’s velvety finish has hints of citrus fruits. 2018

Pale golden-green. Remarkable and aromatic intensity on the nose. Floral notes of white flowers such as hawthorn, acacia, eglantine, and elderflower. This is backed up by blackcurrant buds and wild flowers. It is lively on the palette, with very pleasant acidulous characteristics prolonged by light fruity notes. Full and refreshing, it is dominated by flinty stones and chalk typical of fine Sancerre wines. 2018

Light, with persistent grape skins perfume, this Vouvray has a touch of firm acidity to lift the finish. It’s a breezy, off-dry white for freshwater fish.
