Dme. David Sautereau, Sancerre,
Drink now,
The talented David Sautereau has once again come up trumps, succeeding in retaining the classic restraint and balance of Sancerre, while giving a subtle nod to the unusually generous summer of 2018. The result is a fresh and mineral take on this warm and sunny vintage, seamlessly combining ripe stone-fruit with crisp citrus and subtle flint. It’s a perfect partner to the famous local Crottin de Chavignol goats’ cheese.

Situated in the village of Crézancy 7km from the town of Sancerre, the 18ha Domaine Sautereau has been producing Sancerres for nine generations. Winemaker David Sautereau uses a blend of age-old practises and modern techniques to show the terroir characteristics of Sancerre at their best. A cool fermentation ensures a particularly pure, fruity style while 3 months on the lees provide extra complexity and richness.
The wines are stored in stainless steel vats and bottled 6 months after the harvest for extra freshness.
