François Dubessy, Pouilly-Fumé, Loire, France 2021

If the excellent German Sauvignon Blanc in the Summer Wine Tour is too fruit-forward for you, consider this more traditional and restrained varietal expression, from the Loire's famous Pouilly-Fumé appellation. There's some fresh pea and asparagus green character, with a herby freshness and some mineral weight. A safe choice to accompany a goat's cheese tart or green pea risotto.
