From Domaine Henri Bourgeois in Chavignol, Loire Valley, the Sancerre Blanc 2023 is a refined Sauvignon Blanc from Kimmeridgian marl and limestone-clay soils in Sancerre. Hand-harvested from sustainable vineyards, it’s fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel and aged briefly on fine lees, offering a pale straw hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A crisp, vibrant white with citrus and mineral finesse, showcasing Sancerre’s terroir.
The nose reveals citrus, pineapple, and white flowers, with hints of white grapefruit and eucalyptus. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and fresh, with bright acidity, a smooth texture, and flavors of lime pith, green papaya, and a clean, mineral finish.
Awards and Accolades
The 2023 Sancerre Blanc earned 90 points from Wine Enthusiast for its vibrant citrus and mineral profile and 90 points from James Suckling for its focused, flavorful finish in the 2023 vintage.
