Edmond Vatan Sancerre Clos la Neore, Loire, France 2022
Sancerre Clos La Néore 2022 is one of the Loire Valley's most legendary white wines and a benchmark for world-class Sauvignon Blanc. Produced from a tiny, steep south-facing vineyard in Chavignol, Clos La Néore is crafted in extremely limited quantities and has achieved near-cult status among collectors. The 2022 vintage reveals extraordinary purity with layers of citrus zest, white peach, green apple, crushed stone, white flowers, and flinty minerality. Powerful yet impeccably balanced, the palate combines remarkable concentration with electric acidity and an exceptionally long, saline finish. A profound, age-worthy Sancerre that showcases the extraordinary terroir of Clos La Néore and the meticulous craftsmanship that has made Edmond Vatan one of France's most revered producers.
