The weight and texture from those older vines really come through on the palate—it’s more layered than your average Sancerre. Paired beautifully with a goat cheese salad, the minerality cut right through the cream.

I was surprised by how much depth the old vines give it—this Sancerre has a real mineral edge that cuts through the fruit without being harsh. Sipped it alongside some goat cheese and it was a perfect pairing.

Opened this on a quiet evening and the old vine concentration really shows — it’s got that stony, flinty edge you’d expect from Sury en Vaux, not just a generic sauvignon. I’ve had pricier bottles that didn’t feel this honest to the soil.
