Domaine du Pre Semele Sancerre La Montee de Saint Romble, Loire, France 2022
Sancerre “La Montée de Saint-Romble” 2022 is a striking single-vineyard Sauvignon Blanc that showcases the elegance and mineral precision of top-tier Sancerre. Sourced from old vines rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone soils, this beautifully expressive wine opens with aromas of citrus zest, white peach, gooseberry, and spring flowers, accented by hints of flint and crushed stone. The palate is layered and vibrant, balancing ripe orchard fruit with mouthwatering acidity and a pronounced mineral backbone that drives the wine through a long, focused finish. Refined yet intensely flavorful, the 2022 captures the purity of Loire Valley terroir and stands as one of the standout expressions from the talented Raimbault brothers at Domaine du Pré Sémelé.
