Domaine Curot 2023 Sancerre Blanc Loire Valley White

Domaine Curot’s 2023 Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant expression of Loire Valley excellence, crafted by a family rooted in winemaking tradition since 1860. Hailing from the renowned Vinon hillside vineyards southeast of Sancerre, this crisp white wine offers a refreshing escape for lovers of zesty citrus and mineral-driven flavors. Perfect for pairing with fresh seafood or light summer dishes, it delivers an aromatic profile brimming with bright lime zest and lemon freshness, complemented by subtle hints of crushed oyster shell that evoke the region’s iconic terroir. A whisper of white pepper adds complexity without overpowering its balanced core of ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot.

Éric Louis’s legacy begins with his great-grandmother Pauline, an early trailblazer in Sancerre who inspired generations of meticulous viticulture at Domaine Curot. Today, their vines thrive in silex-rich soils—distinctive to this area—that impart a unique stony minerality to each sip. Unlike many modern styles, this wine prioritizes elegance over overt acidity through sustainable practices passed down over centuries. Its clean finish and refined structure make it equally at home as an aperitif or alongside goat cheese salads and grilled fish.

Whether you’re seeking an authentic taste of Sancerre’s historic winemaking or a versatile white for your next dinner gathering, this 2023 vintage offers exceptional value and character. With 12.5% alcohol content for approachable enjoyment, Domaine Curot’s Sauvignon Blanc stands out for its harmony of bright fruit and mineral depth—a testament to its heritage and meticulous craftsmanship.
