About this product
The flagship Sancerre Blanc from silex soils — one of the Loire's most distinctive whites. Whole-cluster pressed, fermented in stainless at low temperature, 9 months on fine lees. Pale gold with green highlights; intense grapefruit, passion fruit, white currant, a smoky gunflint mineral note, and a bracingly long, saline finish. Ages magnificently for 8–12 years, developing a honeyed, waxy complexity.

complement
The most famous wine-and-cheese pairing of the Loire — the wine's minerality and acidity cuts through the goat cheese's tang; the lactic freshness creates perfect harmony. A geographical necessity.
