Thomas-Labaille Sancerre Chavignol 'Mont Domnes'
Thomas-Labaille's Sancerres are always some of the most eagerly anticipated releases among our clientele. They own some prime, old vineyards planted on the Kimmeridgian soils of Chavignol. Their wines are the essence of Sancerre and the essence of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc.
The Monts Damnes plot is too steep a slope to ever consider machine harvesting, which is now the norm in the appellation, and it requires intensive, non-mechanized vineyard work. This site is worth the trouble, as drainage and exposure are excellent and ensure the best ripeness for the vintage.
The resulting wine is sensational: rich, fat, round, with layered aromas, a subtle nose and a long finish. Not a typical bistro Sancerre, but a graceful wine meant for aging and pleasure.
