Marquis de Goulaine Touraine Sauvignon Blanc 75cl
If you only buy one bottle to go with cheese, make it a crisp Loire white. This Touraine Sauvignon Blanc from Marquis de Goulaine is fresh, zesty and made for the cheeseboard, especially anything goaty.
Tasting notes
Gooseberry and freshly cut grass on the nose, then a lively, mouth-watering palate with bright acidity and a gently leafy finish.
Vincent's cheese pairings
Goat's cheese and Loire Sauvignon grew up side by side, and it shows. The wine's acidity cuts through the creamy, lemony texture of a fresh goat's cheese.
- Sainte-Maure de Touraine AOP: same region, classic match
- Valençay AOP: ash-coated goat's cheese pyramid from the Loire
- Chabichou: rich, nutty goat's cheese from Poitou
- Ewe & Goat's Cheese Lover Gift Box: add a bottle for the perfect pairing gift

Vintage may vary. Alcohol is sold to over-18s only: by ordering you confirm you are 18 or over, and ID may be requested on delivery.
We recommend the following quantities per person:
For an after dinner cheese board, 30g to 50g per cheese per person is generally enough and should not leave you with much leftover. If you are planning to have a big table and / or want some cheese to be carried over a few days ,we recommend 60 to 80g per cheese per person.
The number of cheeses is up too you (i say the more the better!) but to achieve a good selection from textures, Strenghs & different milks, 4 to 6 cheeses are recommended.
The average Cheese Weight we recommend:
2 to 4 Guests: 125 to 150g per cheese
6 to 8 Guests: 200 to 250g per Cheese
10 to 12 Guests: 300 to 350g per Cheese
14 to 16 Guests: 450 to 500g per Cheese
