Lucien Crochet, Sancerre Blanc, 2024

Lucien Crochet Sancerre Blanc 2024 is a classic Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc, offering the brisk, mineral-driven style that has made Sancerre one of the world’s benchmark white wine regions. Known for its precision, freshness, and elegance, this wine captures the purity of cool-climate fruit and the distinctive limestone-and-flint character that defines the appellation.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it is typically pale straw with bright, crystalline reflections. The nose is lifted and expressive, with notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, gooseberry, and a subtle flinty edge. The palate is crisp and focused, balancing zesty acidity with layers of grapefruit, pear, elderflower, and wet stone minerality. The finish is clean and persistent, with the kind of tension and freshness that makes Sancerre so appealing in its youth, while still allowing it a few years of graceful development.

Production
Sancerre is shaped by the cool climate and varied soils of the eastern Loire, especially limestone, marl, and flint, all of which contribute to the wine’s refined structure and mineral profile.
