Description
In a nutshell:
A bright and fresh classic Sancerre, with citrus flavours and grassy notes.
The lowdown:
This classic Sancerre showcases the pure mineral backbone and fresh acidity that's the hallmark of Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire. On the nose, aromas of cut grass and meadow flowers come to the fore. Then, youre greeted by characteristic Sancerre elegance with bright citrus and ripe stone fruit flavours. It's a vibrant and expressive wine from a quality-focused producer.
The Producer:
The Dezats have been a winemaking dynasty in the Sancerre area since the 16th century. Firmin Dezat, from the latest generation, operates from his grandfather Andres old cellars in Verdigny. He manages over 20 hectares of vineyards, growing Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir across various soil types, the different terroirs adding depth and character to his wines. In 2021, he converted to organic practices and focuses on minimal intervention in the winery. This approach allows the natural qualities of his fruit and the terroir to shine through, creating wines that truly reflect their origins. It's a good blend of tradition and modern winemaking.
When to drink:
This wine a naturally good aperitif option or would pair well with seafood or light cheese dishes.
