Tasting Notes

White peach, citrus zest and smoky mineral notes define this beautifully mature Sancerre. The fruit remains vibrant and focused, while time in bottle has added extra layers of complexity and intrigue.

About Domaine Vacheron

Stepping into a legacy spanning over 120 years, forward-thinking cousins Jean-Dominique and Jean-Laurent Vacheron have transformed their historic Sancerre estate into a certified biodynamic beacon of precision. Applying a meticulous, single-vineyard Burgundian philosophy to their prized silex soils, they craft staggeringly pure Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs that pulse with intense flinty minerality, razor-sharp tension, and a sleek, age-defying majesty.

About Burgundy

The Loire Valley stretches across a wide sweep of France and is defined by variety, structure and strong regional identity. In the east, Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé are known for precise Sauvignon Blanc with a consistently complex and ageworthy profile. Moving west, Vouvray showcases the versatility of Chenin Blanc across dry sparkling and long-lived styles. Anjou and Saumur offer a mix of Chenin-based whites and structured reds, while Saumur-Champigny is recognised for particularly refined Cabernet Franc with real ageing potential. Further toward the coast, Chinon specialises in quality red wines, and the Nantais delivers classic Muscadet, known for its clarity and ability to pair with seafood. The Loire remains one of France’s most diverse and reliably characterful regions.
