Alcohol: 13%
Grape(s): 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Location: Sancerre, Loire Valley, France
Tasting Notes: The wine opens with vivid notes of lemon balm, boxwood, moss, gooseberry, and bright citrus, layered with white and yellow orchard fruits, delicate white flowers, and subtle exotic nuances. On the palate, its bright, juicy acidity carries ripe peach and citrus flavors across a smooth, supple texture, underscored by the flinty minerality that defines classic Sancerre. The finish is long and expressive, lifted by a green, herbaceous character reminiscent of fresh‑cut grass and crushed leaves, leaving a clean, aromatic impression.
Food pairing: This Sancerre’s bright acidity and mineral lift make it a natural partner for seafood such as oysters, shrimp, and scallops, as well as delicate white fish like sole, cod, and trout. Its citrus‑driven freshness also complements tangy goat cheeses—especially the region’s own Crottin de Chavignol—while light salads and dishes featuring fresh herbs find an easy harmony with its herbal notes. Thanks to its crisp, clean profile, it also shines beautifully on its own as a refreshing aperitif.
Winery Story: Château de Crézancy is a family-run Sancerre winery, founded by Robert Chevreau in 1956, starting with just 0.2 hectares, with the vision to grow quality Sauvignon Blanc, now run by his daughter-in-law Ingrid & grandson Nicolas, known for classic, fresh Sancerre with citrus, pear, and flinty notes, showcasing the region's exceptional terroir through generations of dedication to the craft
