Wine:

Domaine Serge Laloue's 2022 white Sancerre denies neither its terroir nor its grape variety. The Sauvignon nose, with its hints of caillottes and fresh minerality, is immediately impressive. The perfectly ripe palate offers tension and liveliness without excess, in fine balance. A very good representative of the appellation, to be enjoyed slowly over 3 to 5 years.

Vinification:

Aged on lees in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats.

In conversion to Organic Agriculture and certified by Ecocert HVE.

Color:

Bright pale yellow with silver highlights.

Nose:

Very typical sauvignon marked by a mineral nose

Palate:

Fresh and well-balanced, this wine reveals a ripe Sauvignon with a nice tension and a vivacity without excess.

Temperature:

Serve between 10 and 12°C.

Food and wine pairing:

Ideal for aperitif, seafood, raw fish, pan-fried prawns and tasting of goat cheese, crottin de Chavignol.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2027

Today, more than ever, the Sancerre appellation is on a roll! The flagship of the Loire region, renowned for the geological richness and variety of its terroirs, ranging from white earth to caillottes and flint, the appellation is one of the most sought-after, famous, and envied worldwide, exporting two-thirds of its production.


The nuances of its soils are admirably suited to Sauvignon Blanc, and produce great Pinot Noirs (10% of volumes), which are serious alternatives to the great Burgundy today.
