2024 Roger & Christophe Moreux Sancerre Les Monts Damnes

Roger & Christophe Moreux’s 2024 Sancerre Les Monts Damnés is a precise, mineral-driven expression of one of Sancerre’s most celebrated sites. From the famed steep slopes of Les Monts Damnés, this wine captures the chalky tension and freshness that have made Sancerre a benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc in the Loire.

Tasting Notes
Expect a pale, bright straw colour with a glint of green in the glass. The nose is typically lifted and elegant, with aromas of citrus zest, white flowers, green apple, and a distinct flinty, limestone character that speaks to the site. On the palate, it should be crisp and focused, combining vibrant acidity with layers of lemon, grapefruit, orchard fruit, and a savoury mineral core. The finish is long and clean, with the kind of structure that allows the wine to gain complexity over a few years in bottle.

Production
Les Monts Damnés is one of the most prized terroirs in Sancerre, known for its steep slopes and chalky, limestone-rich soils that give Sauvignon Blanc its hallmark tension and minerality. The vineyard’s exposure and elevation help preserve freshness and aromatic intensity, while careful harvesting ensures the grapes arrive in optimal condition for vinification. The wine is typically produced with a restrained approach to preserve purity of fruit and the character of the site.

Food & Serving
This Sancerre is an excellent partner for goat’s cheese, especially Crottin de Chavignol, as well as oysters, shellfish, grilled white fish, and vegetable dishes with fresh herbs. Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C. Decanting is not usually necessary, though a brief aeration can help if enjoyed young.
