Did you know that Sauvignon Blanc from France is named Pouilly Fumé, Sancerre, and Sauvignon de Touraine. Just like in California it might be called Fumé Blanc thanks to our own Minnesota native Robert Mondovi.
All Bordeaux wines are almost invariably blended. The permissible grape varieties in red Bordeaux are: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. While wine making styles vary, a rule of thumb is that the Left Bank is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon based with the Right Bank being more Merlot based.
Vouvray (“voo-vray”) is a white wine made with Chenin Blanc grapes that grow along the banks of the Loire River in the Touraine district of France.
