Quincy is one of the oldest appellations in France, with its recognition following only that of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The singular combination of flinty sand and pink limestone soils produce Sauvignon Blanc unlike any others in the world: textured, lush, full of aromatic gooseberry and passionfruit—all supported by spiny minerality. Few producers are still making wine in the region’s traditional style, which makes expressions such as this feel like unexpected gems. Château de Quincy marks the first collaboration between Domaine Trotereau’s longtime winemaker, Pierre Ragon, and Augustin Ponroy, who will succeed him. If this is any indication of what’s ahead, we can happily anticipate years of marvelous wine to come.
