Thierry Delaunay, Manoir Sauvignon Blanc, Touraine, Loire, France

Majestic has worked hard to revamp its Loire range in 2020, and this is one of many new additions to the line-up, this time at the value end. It has good Touraine Sauvignon Blanc typicity, and has spent some time on lees (in stainless steel), which adds more texture. It's juicy, crisp and fruit-forward, with the slightest whiff of armpits.
