22% OFF RETAIL!
Domaine Vacheron! Organic and biodynamic since 2000, the Vacherons are without question one of Sancerre’s leading winemaking clans, and we’re stoked to have this limited wine available to you today! These will go quickly!
We can scarcely get anything from Sancerre these days, so to have this recent release from one of the region’s most exceptional producers…well, it feels pretty darn great! From the family’s pioneering work in identifying and utilizing the region’s top terroirs, to their leading position in biodynamic viticulture today, there are few (if any) artisans in Sancerre as exacting or as respected.
Here we have “Le Paradis” – yes, paradise indeed – sitting on a bedrock of almost entirely chalk, with a touch of silex and almost no clay. A saline minerality drenches the wines, giving it perhaps the most “Sancerre-esque” expression, with notes of gooseberry, cut grass, grapefruit, and pineapple. This 2023 vintage is as bright and delectable and energetic as you might expect, coming from the ever-revered Domaine Vacheron! Limited bottles remain, so move quickly and sip the rest of your summer away in style!
