Product Description
The 2023 Sancerre Blanc ‘Grand’Chaille’ from Domaine Thomas & Fils is a textbook expression of Sauvignon Blanc grown on caillottes—limestone-rich soils that give the wine its distinct tension and mineral edge. Located in the heart of the Sancerre appellation, the domaine farms organically and vinifies with precision to highlight terroir over technique.
This cuvée is fermented in stainless steel and aged on fine lees to preserve freshness and texture. The result is a vibrant, bone-dry Sancerre with clarity, finesse, and that classic chalky finish that defines the region’s finest whites.
