Domaine André Neveu, Le Grand Fricambault Silex Sancerre 2024 White

Domaine André Neveu’s Le Grand Fricambault Silex Sancerre 2024 is a refined expression of one of France’s most celebrated white wine regions. Sourced from the historic village of Chavignol, it captures the distinctive minerality and precision that Sancerre lovers seek, with the added depth that comes from the region’s prized silex and limestone soils. The estate’s wines have long been appreciated for their finesse and age-worthy structure.

Tasting Notes
Pale, luminous straw in the glass, this Sancerre opens with a fresh, expressive nose of citrus zest, white peach, green apple, and subtle smoky flint. There is also a delicate herbal edge that adds lift and complexity. On the palate, it is crisp and focused, with vivid acidity, mineral tension, and a clean, elegant finish that reflects its silex-driven character. The wine’s balance and structure suggest very good aging potential, allowing its citrus and mineral notes to develop further over time. While already bright and approachable in its youth, it should gain additional roundness and nuance with a few years of cellaring.

Production
The vineyards lie in the heart of Sancerre, where André Neveu works with prized silex and limestone soils that are particularly well suited to Sauvignon Blanc. These terroirs contribute the wine’s signature minerality, finesse, and tension. Harvesting is typically done with care to preserve freshness and aromatic purity, followed by vinification designed to emphasize precision, varietal character, and the purity of the fruit.

Food & Serving
This is a natural match for Crottin de Chavignol, the classic goat’s cheese of the region, but it also works beautifully with oysters, shellfish, grilled fish, sushi, and fresh vegetable dishes. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C to highlight its freshness and mineral character. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a brief aeration can help open the wine if enjoyed very young.
