L’Étincelle – Sauvignon Blanc – 2023
Sancerre AOP · Loire Valley · France 🇫🇷
Overview
A lively and textbook Sancerre showcasing the purity and finesse of Sauvignon Blanc grown on Loire Valley limestone soils. Clean, crisp and unmistakably mineral-driven.
Aromas & Flavors
Bright lemon peel, green apple, white grapefruit and subtle gooseberry, wrapped in flinty minerality and fresh herbs.
Mouthfeel
Zesty and refreshing with razor-clean acidity. Light, vibrant and precise, finishing with a chalky, mouthwatering snap.
Food Pairings
Perfect with goat cheese (especially Crottin de Chavignol), oysters, sushi, ceviche, grilled shrimp or simple salads with citrus dressing.
Verdict
A refreshing, no-nonsense Sancerre that nails the classic profile: citrusy, crisp, and mineral to its core. A fantastic everyday Loire pick.
Did You Know?
Sancerre’s signature minerality comes from its unique “terres blanches” and “caillottes” limestone soils, among the coolest Sauvignon Blanc terroirs in the world.
