Planted outside the appellation rules, this Savagnin is bottled as Vin de France, offering a thrillingly unconventional take on the region. Lively and untamed, it shows bruised orchard fruit layered with a salt-tinged, savoury edge and a striking mineral core. Intensely long and mouth-wateringly fresh, this is a wine that surprises and rewards in equal measure.
