Located a stone's throw from the historic Pont du Gard on the Rhône's right bank, Vignerons Propriétés Associés is the same cooperative that produces the AWM customer and staff favorite Prestige Côtes du Rhône. The cooperative's vineyards stretch across a vast vinous triangle defined by the commune of St Hilaire d'Ozilhan at the center of the southern border between the Gard and the Côtes du Rhône and extending westward toward Sommières near the edge of the Camargue Region.
Vineyards here benefit from the unique location close to the Mediterranean and the ancient Roman city of Nîmes. The vines thrive on a robust site where dry, warm weather and a surface of rolled pebbles create a distinctly healthy growing environment. The coop's 2,700 hectares of sustainably managed vineyard surrounding Nîmes provide vignerons with diverse exposures and microclimates that help shape the wines' unique character.
The cooperative cultivates a complete set of Mediterranean grape varietals and works with a lengthy list of well-known international stars, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, and Chardonnay. The Saveurs du Temps label represents a curated selection from their best young-vine vineyard parcels and is intended to deliver wines that are fresh, balanced, and unmistakably tied to their terroir.
In your glass, Saveur du Temps Sauvignon Blanc opens with bright citrus aromas, with subtle notes of lime, basil, and green apple. The palate is a terrific balance of brightness and rounded fruit, with a touch of mineral on the back end that keeps the finish lively.
As you'd expect, this easy-going Sauvignon Blank is a pleasure for casual sipping; however, it's also very well suited for a wealth of culinary combinations. Try it with light seafood dishes, crisp salads, or a simple cheese plate for classic pairings. If you're feeling more adventurous, consider pairing it with dishes that feature Mediterranean ingredients, such as fennel and orange salad or roasted vegetables with herbs.
