Neverland Jurassic Sands sauvignon Blanc

The Sauvignon Blanc and the Chardonnay are the two most famous white grape varieties. However, the Sauvignon Blanc has a drier taste than the Chardonnay. The Sauvignon Blanc is planted in a climate that is not too warm. This is necessary to maintain the fresh taste. For a number of years, the Sauvignon Blanc has also been planted in the somewhat colder Germany. However, you see a lot of Sauvignon Blanc from the warm New World countries, this is because they are planted in the famous ‘Cool Climate’ areas where the vineyards are located at altitude and the temperature differences between day and night are large. The most beautiful Sauvignon Blancs come from the French region of Loire. This is where, for example, the Pouilly-Fumé originated. This wine owes its name to the soil in which the vines grow. The soil consists of flint and pebbles. The Loire has even more soils such as: granite, tuft, limestone and slate. These different soils are probably a result of the ice age.
