90 points Rebecca Gibb, MW (Vinous)?: "The 2023 La Moussière is a rounded, airy wine with pure, clear fruit. It's finely textured with curved edges, both from time on lees (8 months) and a combination of aging in wood, concrete and stainless steel vessels. The pure fruit shines through with no evidence of oak flavor, allowing the pretty lemon, nettle and fresh pineapple characters to sing. Biodynamic since 1999, everything is hand-harvested. 2023-2028. (Aug 2024)"

Producer notes: "The Domaine de La Moussière is the cornerstone of our house. This is from where we produce "La Moussière" our normal blend, "Génération XIX" and "Edmond". More than 30 hectares located on a magnificent South-facing site. A genuine gift from past generations. The marles, known as "Saint Doulchard" are situated on Kimmeridgien limestone and are practically unique in the Sancerre are a and which give the wine its own special character. The Sancerre Blanc "La Moussière" is produced from young and old vines."
