This pale, platinum-edged Sancerre unfurls with striking aromas of ripe green apples and baked pears, fresh white flowers, and lemongrass – along with suggestions of lavender, cassis, boxwood, and jasmine, all moving in and out of the foreground as the wine evolves in the glass. On the palate, the wine is sapid and generous – at the same time fine and elegant – with a delicately spicy core of flavors including lime zest, green mango, and Asian pear, all seasoned with chalky minerality that persists through the long, elegant finish.

Etienne Daulny farms over twenty small parcels in Sancerre, including fifty-year-old vines in La Perrière and Les Bois Butteaux in the town of Verdigny, and a steep plot in Les Monts Damnés in Chavignol, regarded by many as the most important vineyard in all of Sancerre. The diversity of soil types, elevations and exposures allow for wines of tremendous complexity and character, ensured by his brother Bertrand’s rigorous protocol in the cellar. The resulting wines are fresh and vibrant, with an accompanying structure and richness found in only the best expressions of the appellation.
