Sancerre Les Monts Damnés 2020
A dynamic Sancerre from the famed Les Monts Damnés Vineyard, this is a deeply nuanced wine. The combination of Kimmeridgian marls in these soils gives Paul Prieur & Fils Sauvignon Blanc with an extra dimension, leading to a wine that dazzles with citrus, minerality, and the structure to age gracefully.
