Note di degustazione
The 2019 Sancerre Guigne-Chèvres is pure, delicate and comfortable in its own skin. There's not a hair out of place. It is poised and perfectly balanced, offering the finest of textures. Delicate flavors of nectarine, pear and a hint of flint furnish this wine with a lengthy, precise conclusion. If you are a Sauvignon Blanc denigrator, I defy you not to be converted after tasting this. And you can do so now; it's already gorgeous. (RG)

From a northeast-facing vineyard on jurassic (Oxfordian) limestone that was harvested between September 12 and October 4, the 2019 Sancerre Guigne-Chèvres is clear, pure and flinty on the bright and refreshing yet deep and complex nose that delivers oyster and lime/lemon zest notes along with discreet but lovely passion fruit aromas and a strong flint stone tone in the background. On the palate, this is an exciting, finessed, sustainable and vivacious Sancerre from an 84-acre vineyard planted in 1983. The wine is rich and intense but also pure and salty and develops a long, tensioned, tightly woven and classic finish with mouth-watering salinity and grippy phenolic structure. This is probably the finest Guigne-Chèvres I have had (or at least I've met the wine at a perfect moment). Tasted in February 2021.
Informazioni sul produttore
Certified biodynamic, Domaine Vacheron is one of the star names in Sancerre. The estate crafts Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from single sites, using low yields and Burgundy-inspired winemaking to produce exceptionally pure, age-worthy expressions of the region that are some of its best.
