Sourced from hillside vineyards from vines avergaing 30-50 years of age around the town of Sancerre, with a mix of chalk and flint (silex) soils. About 20% of the blend is wine from a selection of single-vineyard plots, which gives more complexity (also some wood influence, as the domaine’s single-vineyard Sancerre Blanc wines are aged in larger neutral wooden casks). Hand-harvested. Fermented on indigenous yeasts in a combination of cement and stainless steel tank; aged in tank. Unfiltered. Aromas of grapefruit zest and gunflint. Flavors of lemons and limes, sea salt, crisp pears.
2023 vintage rated 93 points by James Suckling: "A succulent, driven and elegant white. It offers notes of passion fruit, gunpowder and warm herbs on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity. Lively with a sharp character on the palate, yet it remains juicy, agile and comforting. Delicious finish with excellent length. Drink or hold."
