Henri Bourgeois Sancerre La Porte du Caillou Blanc 2022

"Domaine Des Buissonnes by Roger Naudet is one of the few classically styled Sancerre bottlings which doesn't cost an arm and a leg to bring home. With the rapid rise in popularity, many producers are pumping out characterless Sauvignon Blanc and shipping it quickly to thirsty consumers oversees. Buissonnes is a point of difference, maintaining the sharp citrus and mineral driven style which made Sancerre famous in the first place." —winemaker

"A pale yellow brillant color with deep golden reflections. The first nose, intense and complex, takes us on aromas of elderflower, acacia but also honey from wild flowers. Next come notes of English candy and fruity notes of pineapple. The attack on the palate is fresh and very supple. Citrus and lemony notes bring a nice balance and a nice tangy finish." —winemaker

"100% single vineyard Sancerre from Crezancy, a tiny village with fewer than 500-inhabitants that sits precariously above two of the appellation’s three faults. Completely hands-on from start to finish. Sauvignon Blanc grapes are brought in bunches to the garage winery in the cooler morning hours where they are gently crushed, settled and quickly fermented. A short batonnage and a long slumber in tank precede bottling a year after harvest." —winemaker

"Pale and vibrant in color. The Pascal Jolivet Sancerre is fresh, clean and screaming with racy acidity. On the palate it is fresh and tightly wound; acidity is tempered by very subtle residual sugar; very clean; alive, racy, youthful. Overall, a dry and elegant wine." —winemaker

"Medium intensity, it reveals notes of exotic fruits (passion fruit and pineapple) and honeysuckle. It is dry, fresh and full of aromas of citrus (grapefruit), exotic fruits (passion fruit, pineapple), flint and with a little vegetal (grass cut). The finish is of medium length. It is a very good wine, to drink now or to keep a maximum of 5 years to preserve the fruitiness of the wine. It will be enjoyed alone with friends or with fish in sauce, cooked crustaceans, dry goat's cheese such as Crottin de Chavignol. " —winemaker

"Pale yellow color with a fruity and citrus nose. A pure Sancerre with incredible freshness and minerality. It has a good depth, lovely, citrus fruit, and a classic flintiness on the nose and palate." —winemaker
