This 2024 Sancerre Blanc is made by Domaine Henri Bourgeois from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grown on flinty clay and limestone soils between Chavignol and Sancerre. The wine is described as delicate yet full-bodied, with a crisp, dynamic profile and a lingering finish. The house style emphasizes low yields, high-density planting, and inter-row grassing, which help preserve purity and terroir expression.
Tasting Notes
The nose shows citrus fruit, pineapple, grapefruit, white flowers, and a touch of eucalyptus. On the palate, it is round and brilliant, then finishes fresh and mineral, with sliced pear, wet stones, and a clean, dry edge. Another listing for the related “Les Baronnes” bottling notes gooseberry, grapefruit, peach, passionfruit, and a mineral dryness, which closely matches the estate’s Sancerre Blanc profile.
Serving and Cellaring
Serve at 10–12°C. This is a wine best enjoyed young for its freshness, though it should hold well over the short to medium term. It pairs especially well with shellfish, oysters, seafood, roast chicken with herbs, and goat cheese.
