    Description of Sancerre Blanc "Exils"

    Estate

    Domaine François Crochet is a family-run estate known for its expertise and commitment to producing quality Sancerre wines. Located in the Centre region, the estate maintains a winemaking tradition focused on expressing the true terroir.

    Vineyard

    The vineyard of Domaine François Crochet stretches over the limestone slopes of Sancerre, an ideal environment for the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety. The pebbly and clay-limestone soils provide the freshness and minerality characteristic of white wines from this appellation.

    Wine

    This white Sancerre, made exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc, is noted for its freshness and elegance. It precisely reflects the mineral and fruity character of the terroir, offering a delicate and balanced aromatic palette.

    Vintage

    The 2021 vintage benefited from favorable climatic conditions, allowing optimal grape maturity and an interesting balance between acidity and aromatic expression. The wine shows a harmonious balance and fine finesse.

    Vinification & Aging

    Vinification is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and typical aromas of Sauvignon Blanc. Aging on fine lees adds complexity and volume on the palate without diminishing the wine's lively character.
