Sancerre 2022 Le Pavé - Domaine Vacheron
Vacheron from the estate - Loire
96/100 James Suckling
"A mineral, vertical and harmonious Sancerre, displaying notes of apple, flint, lime blossom and winter undergrowth. It is medium-bodied, with lively acidity and character. There is a tension that brings verticality to a clean and precise mid-palate. Stony and succulent, with lots of dynamism, texture and a long, almost smoky finish reminiscent of gunpowder. Made from organically grown grapes. Drink now or keep."
- Ageing : 2025 - 2040
- Tasting : From an east-facing vineyard with 26-year-old vines on "Cretaceous marl", Sancerre Le Pavé opens with a deep, intense and pure nose; fresh and stony, very complex. Round and intense on the palate, with a full, powerful body, refreshing richness and a lingering spiciness, this is a pure, fine and elegant Sancerre, enduring and persistent, with a stimulating, finely tannic, salty finish. Absolutely magnificent.
- Food and wine pairing: Seafood: oysters; scallops or cheese platter.
- Serving temperature: 7 to 10°C
- Label : AB - Biodyvin
