2023 Raimbault Sancerre

Tasting Notes

This Sancerre is brisk with plenty of fruit in the bouquet and on the palate, as well as vegetal notes of cassis leaf, white flowers, and citrus. The attack is frank, and the mouth feel is rich and round. Grown on the holy trinity of Loire terroir; silex, caillotes, and terres blanches. Pure and expansive aromas of citrus, quince, fresh herbs and minerals. This wine is lithe and sharply focused, offering intense orchard fruit and lemon flavors. Mouthwatering and delicious.

About Noel & Jean-Luc Raimbault

In the petite village of Sury-en-Vaux, one of the most picturesque villages in Sancerre, sits one of the finest sources for laser cut and lacy Sauvignon Blanc – Noël et Jean Luc Raimbault. This domaine delivers older-vine Sancerre that is raised on the sacred soils of the Loire – with an absurdly high percentage of silex for a classic bottling – and aged only in tank. What we're looking for is Sancerre that captures the essence of the appellation--always razor-fresh, with layers of white fruit and plenty of mineral purity. This beauty, pulled from gnarled vines that sit on the upper reaches of the Sury vineyard slopes, is a jewel of Sancerre that delivers pure Sauvignon love.
