2024 Domaine La Croix Saint-Laurent Sancerre Blanc

The 2024 Sancerre Blanc from Domaine La Croix Saint-Laurent channels the limestone hillsides of Bué with crystalline clarity.
The vintage brought cool nights and sunny, even ripening—perfect conditions for Sauvignon Blanc to develop vivid aromatics while holding its hallmark tension. Grapes are harvested by hand, given a gentle press, and fermented slowly in stainless steel to preserve purity. A short rest on fine lees softens the edges and adds a quietly creamy undertone.
In the glass, the wine feels brisk and finely etched. Lime, green apple, and white peach move effortlessly into chalky mineral tones, while the palate stays sleek and refreshing. This is unmistakably Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc: focused, fragrant, and built on a spine of clean, stony energy.

Nose: Lime zest, gooseberry, and white flowers layered with cool flint.

Palate: Crisp citrus, green apple, and subtle stone-fruit notes carried by vibrant acidity and chalky mineral edges.

Finish: Long and refreshing with citrus peel, wet stone, and a clean, saline lift.

Pairs beautifully with fresh chèvre, oysters on the half shell, citrus-dressed salads, or simple grilled white fish—the wine’s bright fruit and mineral backbone sharpen and elevate light, clean flavors.
