Delaille 2025 Sauvignon Blanc "Unique" Val de Loire

We’ve been offering the “Unique” bottling from this Kermit Lynch Imports Cheverny producer for nearly two decades.  Lightly herbaceous in the aroma—sort of a “Sancerre-Lite”--it is very round on the palate, with lovely fruit.  Is there a note of pine somewhere in there?  Great Value.

“Artichoke season may have peaked, but take heart! On the central California coast, artichokes are harvested and trucked across the U.S. almost year-round, not just in the spring. And that’s lucky for us, because these delicious green thistles make for such satisfying summer grub: steamed or grilled and dipped in garlicky aïoli; sucking the soft flesh from each petal, then scooping out the feathery choke before devouring the tender heart; all washed down with refreshing gulps of Salvard’s zesty, citrus-blossom-scented Unique. Pure, perennial pleasure.”—Madison H. Brown, Kermit Lynch Imports
