The estate regularly plows vineyard rows, and plants beneficial herbs to control weed growth and stimulate vines’ roots to dig deeper into the soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEstate holdings cover a range of classic Loire terroir, including Kimmeridgian marl, flint\/clay, and limestone. Many of Blanchet’s wines are based on a particular terroir selection, to highlight in the glass each unique expression of Sauvignon Blanc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"color_15\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCuvee notes: ‘Calcite’ is Sauvignon Blanc by way of Chablis! Here Francis Blanchet selects vineyards rich in chalky marl (specifically Kimmeridgian, for the geologists among us) for a white wine that screams sea shells and days by the beach — so much energy, so much true “minerality.” A gorgeous partner for fruits de mer in all their wonderful variety. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"North Berkeley Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46478756577487,"sku":null,"price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/3021\/4607\/files\/TempPicComingSoon_df855b2d-983d-4e68-aacb-5028a79bb202.jpg?v=1794007620","url":"https:\/\/florwines.com\/products\/domaine-francis-blanchet-calcite-pouilly-fume-2025","provider":"Flor Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
