Emile Balland - Sancerre

12.5% abv, 75cl, Sancerre, Loire Valley, France, White, 100% Sauvignon Blanc.

Emile Balland - Sancerre "Croq' Caillotte" unveils a clear, bright pale-straw canvas with subtle green reflections and a vibrant bouquet of fresh citrus fruits, green apple, and white peach. Sourced from a tiny, steep, south-facing single hectare of vineyards layered with iconic chalky limestone stones, the medium-bodied palate delivers a textbook crispness filled with mouth-watering acidity and notes of juicy melon. This precise energy is beautifully balanced by a hallmark, tongue-tingling mineral texture derived from its pure stainless steel vinification. The wine culminates in a remarkably clean, focused, and elegant finish that perfectly honors the centuries-old winemaking heritage of this boutique Loire Valley estate.
