The Loire is the longest river in France. It flows from the mountains of the Massif Central, up towards Orléan before turning west towards Nantes and the Atlantic coast. As you might imagine, the wines it produces along the way are many and varied. They come in all guises from red to rosé and white, still and sparkling, bone dry to unctuously sweet. Its most famous wines are white and they include Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Vouvray and Muscadet. The one thing they all have in common is deliciously refreshing acidity.
