Tasting notes
Classic Sancerre from a ripe 2024 vintage: expect lifted citrus blossom and white grapefruit on the nose, with a palate of green apple, nettle and flinty minerality. Crisp acidity carries through to a clean, saline finish.

Key characteristics
About this wine
Bright and expressive on the nose with classic Sancerre character, zesty grapefruit, white currant, and freshly cut grass underpin lifted floral notes and a whisper of flint. The palate is crisp and focused, delivering lively citrus acidity with green apple and a subtle herbaceous edge. The minerality is beautifully pronounced, reflecting the gravelly soils of La Gravelière, and the finish is clean, saline, and persistently refreshing.
