Domaine Laporte Sancerre Le Grand Rochoy, Loire, France 2024
“Le Grand Rochoy” Sancerre, Loire, France 2024
For Sauvignon Blanc lovers seeking something beyond the ordinary, Le Grand Rochoy is a standout single-vineyard Sancerre from Domaine Laporte’s historic Rochoy monopole. Grown on flint-rich soils and made from old vines, this organically farmed wine combines classic Loire freshness with remarkable depth and texture. Aromas of white peach, ripe citrus and yellow fruits mingle with smoky flint, delicate herbs and a subtle peppery note. The palate is concentrated yet beautifully balanced, with vibrant acidity, refined richness and a long, mineral-driven finish. Thoughtfully aged for 11 months across stainless steel, oak barrels and amphora, this is a sophisticated, terroir-expressive Sancerre with the structure to evolve gracefully in the cellar.
