Sancerre les Monts Damnes 2023

The Sancerre Les Monts Damnés is produced in the Sancerre appellation, located in the Loire Valley, France. The vineyard is situated on the steep, rocky slopes of the Monts Damnés site, known for its unique terroir composed primarily of limestone and flint soils.

This wine is made exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc grapes, the signature variety of the Sancerre region, known for its aromatic intensity and crisp acidity.

The grapes are hand-harvested from the Monts Damnés vineyard, ensuring careful selection of the fruit. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh and mineral character of the wine. Aging is typically done on fine lees to enhance texture and complexity without overpowering the varietal purity.
