La Rive de Loire Menetou-Salon is a beautiful white wine gem from the Loire Valley of France, made of 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Menetou-Salon is adjacent to its more famous neighbor, Sancerre. Owner/winemaker Antoine de la Farge visited Wine Gems in May 2025 to taste his Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé (just across the river) and Menetou-Salon, and we decided to go with the Menetou-Salon! Organic with natural yeast spontaneous fermentation.
“This intriguing wine has a luminous afterglow. Honeydew melon, tangerine skin and red apple aromas mix with chamomile and lilac blossom on the nose. Tart on the attack and supple in texture, the wine quickly moves into flavors of wet stone and spritzed lemon.” —Reggie Solomon, Wine Enthusiast, 90 points!
Enjoy La Rive de Loire Menetou-Salon over the next 3-4 years with grilled salmon, fried oysters, sushi, chicken salad and goat cheese.
