La Haubette Sancerre Blanc 2022
Biodynamic & Organic Practices
33% OFF RETAIL!
Sancerre continues to be one of the in-demand wines in the world – it’s in such limited production, yet so many people want to get their hands on some. We’re thrilled to have found this organic, biodynamic, fruit-forward vision for over 30% off! It’s destined to move quickly – will some make it to your cellar?
We sincerely believe Sancerre may be the hottest wine region in the world at the moment. It’s nearly impossible to keep on our shelves, and in the last decade alone, these Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc wines have become increasingly more difficult to locate. As such, prices have begun to skyrocket, keeping up with the likes of premier cru White Burgundy, and its desirability has only climbed higher alongside the price sticker. So, you might imagine that when we CAN get our hands on hyper-fresh, organic, dutifully crafted Sancerre for under $30... we do whatever it takes to get as much as we possibly can!
La Haubette has been run by the same family for generations, remaining committed to traditional winemaking styles while prioritizing the land and vine health with organic and biodynamic viticulture practices. Their wines are celebrated for the quality – showcasing the ultimate crispness, aromas, and acidic qualities, a perfect trifecta when it comes to Sancerre Blanc. This 2022 comes from grapes planted in limestone-based soils on southern-facing slopes, and ferments with natural yeasts for the ultimate expression of fruit that’s both mouthwateringly round and refreshingly crisp. With the success of the “very good quality” 2022 growing season in Sancerre, you’ll be blown away by the texture, the brightness, and the depth of flavor found here!
This is a layered and elegant expression of Sauvignon Blanc – with floral and fruity aromas of ripe honeysuckle, Anjou pear, pineapple, white peach, and Meyer lemon accentuating the chalky minerality, punctuated by notes of wet stone and citrusy acidity. Accents of Tahitian vanilla and cardamom give a soft spiciness to the finish, making for an elegant and velvety Sauvignon Blanc that will bring a smile to any white wine lover’s face. A simply fantastic white and a next-level find... for as long as we have it, at least!
PAIRING IDEAS: Tuna poke bowls – bright, light, yet flavorful – are the perfect accompaniment to this aromatic Sancerre.
