Our great friend and award-winning winemaker, Herv Sabardeil, is the master behind this dazzling, lemony-fresh Sauvignon Blanc. It’s not from the Loire, its heartland, but select parcels from southern France to create a crisp white.

If you enjoy the freshness of Loire Sauvignon, you must try this great-value rival from the sunny south. It’s from Herv Sabardeil, a very gifted winemaker we’ve known for many years. His plan was to make the freshest, most aromatic, good-value white he could from whichever vineyards it took. Hence its Vin de France classification. For Herv, wine is an expression of nature’s finest the soil, the sunshine, the grape. La Belle Saison does that very well.

Pure and full of citrus zip, this wine has the freshness you’d expect from a Sauvignon, plus a light tropical fruit note thanks to the warmth of southern France. Delightfully refreshing, this Sauvignon is crisp, fruity and easy, on its own or with light dishes of grilled fish or salads.
