Description
Description
Sancerre La Gravelière 2024 is a refined expression of Sauvignon Blanc from the rolling hills of Sancerre, where vineyards planted on predominantly siliceous soils give the wine its distinctive aromatic lift and mineral precision. These light, silica-rich soils encourage slow, even ripening, resulting in grapes with vibrant acidity and pure, concentrated flavour. After careful harvesting, the fruit undergoes cold static settling before a long, cool fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, preserving the wine’s floral intensity and citrus-driven freshness. The result is a crisp, elegant Sancerre with power, balance, and a beautifully structured finish.
Meet the Producer
La Gravelière forms part of a long-established Sancerre estate devoted to capturing the purity of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Their approach is rooted in environmentally responsible viticulture, with vineyard work tailored to each parcel to reflect the nuances of the region’s diverse soils.
Production
Grapes are harvested with great care to maintain aromatic integrity. Cold settling clarifies the juice naturally before fermentation begins. Fermentation takes place at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks, a method chosen to protect the delicate aromatics and highlight the wine’s bright minerality and precision.
Tasting Notes
The wine opens with an expressive nose of floral notes, passion fruit and orange zest. On the palate, it is fresh and finely textured, with a graceful balance between vibrant acidity and structural depth. The finish is clean, lifted and distinctly mineral.
Food Match
Ideal with goat’s cheese, grilled seafood, shellfish, sushi, or light spring dishes.
