La Folie de Pierre Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Vin de France
La Folie is a tasty, lemon zipped Sauvignon Blanc from fourth generation winemaker Pierre-Jean Sauvion. We’re not saying it’s up in the realms of Sancerre, but it’s a great everyday alternative with brilliant, citrusy elegance and freshness.

Want a sassily fresh white handy in the fridge? Pop in a bottle of La Folie de Pierre. It’s an appetising creation from Pierre-Jean Sauvion, formerly in charge of winemaking at Muscadet’s famous Château du Cléray, an estate owned by his uncle. Pierre-Jean now has a number of projects on the go. Having studied oenology in Bordeaux and worked in Australia and California, he is the epitome of the modern, outward looking French winemaker, whose approach shines through in this contemporary style Sauvignon. He sources grapes for La Folie from trusted friends in Touraine, Pays Nantais and Haut Poitou, to strike a balance of complexity, freshness and ripe fruit. Enjoy chilled solo or with food – we suggest asparagus risotto or courgette frittata.
