Wölffer Estate Vineyard Summer in a Bottle Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Pale yellow with green reflections, this Sauvignon Blanc bursts with aromas of gooseberry, lime zest, elderflower, and fresh citrus. The palate is crisp and vibrant with lively acidity balanced by bright minerality and subtle tropical undertones. Fresh-cut herbs and delicate floral notes add complexity while extended lees aging contributes texture and elegance. Clean, refreshing, and wonderfully energetic, the wine finishes long and polished with a mouthwatering brightness that keeps each sip refreshing and refined.

This Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with seafood and lighter fare. Enjoy it alongside oysters, grilled shrimp, sushi, ceviche, or classic bouillabaisse. The wine’s bright acidity also complements goat cheese, charcuterie, roasted chicken, and fresh garden salads. For warm-weather entertaining, serve well chilled with herb-marinated vegetables or citrus-infused dishes for a crisp and refreshing pairing experience.

Wölffer Estate Vineyard has long been associated with elegant, coastal-inspired wines from New York’s Hamptons, but the winery expanded its celebrated “Summer in a Bottle” collection by partnering with renowned Loire Valley producer Bougrier in France. Founded in 1885, Bougrier has deep roots in the Loire Valley and extensive experience crafting expressive Sauvignon Blanc from sustainably farmed vineyards. Together, the partnership sought to create a wine that captures both the vibrant terroir of Touraine and Wölffer’s signature style of freshness and sophistication.

Sourced from HVE Level 3 certified vineyards, the wine reflects a strong commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. The Loire Valley’s cool climate and limestone-rich soils are ideal for Sauvignon Blanc, producing wines celebrated for their crisp acidity, minerality, and aromatic intensity. Wölffer’s interpretation balances classic Loire freshness with a polished, approachable style designed for warm-weather enjoyment, relaxed entertaining, and elegant food pairings. The result is a lively Sauvignon Blanc that feels equally at home seaside in the Hamptons or at a café along the Loire River.
