Sauvignon Blanc
Harvesting here in the Cher Valley appears to be just getting underway with a few vignerons starting. I assume that many more will be starting early next week. There was some rain on Wednesday but since then it has been fine and the forecast for the next few days is good. We saw a parcel of Sauvignon Blanc being machine harvested and the fruit looked pretty clean, although not on this small sample as perfect as last year with a few traces of rot.
Here the grapes were coming in at 11.5%-12% potential alcohol.
