2024 | Domaine Gérard & Pierre Morin Sancerre "Vieilles Vignes" | Loire | France
Old-vine Sancerre — "the paradigm of Sancerre" — from a Dujac-trained organic grower in Bué.
The "Vieilles Vignes" cuvée from Domaine Gérard & Pierre Morin comes from roughly 40-year-old vines in Bué, on the fractured chalky-pebbly caillottes with some clay-rich terres blanches. Tank-fermented, aged on lees and bottled without filtration, it's concentrated and profound — organic-farmed by Pierre Morin, who trained at Burgundy's Domaine Dujac.
Old-vine village Sancerre from a top organic grower is smart white-Burgundy-lover buying. ~40-year vines, unfiltered, caillottes terroir → concentrated and profound → you're drinking serious old-vine Sancerre.

Old-vine Sancerre that over-delivers on depth and mineral drive. Exactly the bottle for shellfish, goat cheese, or anyone who thinks they know Sancerre.
