Sancerre Guigne-Chevres 2020

From the first fragrance, the feeling of freshness is present, expressed in notes of citrus, gooseberry and eucalyptus. The very calcareous soil gives a very nice spicy dimension. Experience from white pepper and delicate clove notes to notes of pure minerals, iodine, chalk and pebbles. In the mouth it is refreshing and very harmonious. It is carried by its saltiness and minerality in combination with juicy and ripe fruit. The precision with which this wine is made gives an impeccable balance with some fine honey-like notes. It is a model of its kind and can certainly be stored for some time, at least 10 years. He can surprise you with lobster with small vegetables or at the end of a meal with a selection of old goat cheese.

Here in Sancerre 'Guigne-Chevres' we leave Vacheron's flint clay bottoms for chalky limestone soils. Also called the "cailloittes" by the winegrowers in Sancerre. In this vineyard previously exposed to the north, the Sauvignon grape ripens more slowly. This gives the wine its natural finesse, freshness and minerality. Elegant and energetic, the signature of its terroir. The vinification takes place with natural yeasts in holdings, for 9 months.
