Steely, crisp and textural, this is a phenomenal Sancerre in a handy half bottle. Perfect for picnics, light lunches, cheeky train journey tipples, moments when only one person is drinking, or for times when you’d like to sip a white with your starter and a red with your main course, but not end up with lots of leftovers.
There’s a quiet revolution happening in Sancerre and wines like this are leading the charge. Once known for crisp, lean and young Sauvignon Blanc, Sancerre is becoming riper, richer and more able to age. La Vigne Blanche is oak aged in barrels for fine months on the fine lees, this adds body and a gentle creaminess to the herbaceous elderflower, kiwi, green apple, orchard blossom, chalk and lemon sorbet. Buzzing with racy energy and lip-smacking acidity, it’s a fine partner to goats’ cheese, oysters, smoked salmon or a meal of tempura and sushi.
