Clos des Mères was recorded as a distinct plot within the Domaine Octavie back in the early 19th Century and the owners have recently separated it from the remainder again to produce this, their top cuvée. Pure Sauvignon, from the oldest Terra Vitis vines, oak-aged, producing a deep, rich wine with low acidity
Bright Champagne colour and a lemony aroma with marmalade hints, unusual, even interesting, and nothing thus far suggestive of Sauvignon. In the mouth there's still plenty of acidity, behind which lies some richness and depth, with the first signs of age showing on the finish. You've probably got to love this style of Sauvignon to get the best out of it if drinking without food
