About This Wine
Domaine du Salvard focus mainly on Sauvignon Blanc (which, for the AOC wines, must be blended with a little Chardonnay), and Chardonnay, which are perfectly suited to the siliceous clay and Beauce limestone plains of their soils around Fougères-sur-Bièvre. The Salvard Blanc, or ‘Butterfly’ label as it is known around these parts, is 100% Sauvignon and bottled under screwcap for the Australian market. It’s a subtle, racy and flowing Loire Valley Sauvignon. It cannot be labelled as Cheverny as the appellation laws have changed to mandate that producers must include some Chardonnay in the blend to use the AOC. Domaine du Salvard is probably best known for its textural and crisp, Cheverny Blanc which blends Sauvignon with 15% Chardonnay. This is a slightly deeper manifestation of the Domaine, more complex and savoury in nature.
