Clef du Recit Quincy 2023 750ml

$39.99

Anthony Girard grew up at his family's domaine in Sancerre, then left in 2012 to build his own project, Domaine la Clef du Recit, the key to the story. His Quincy is 100% Sauvignon Blanc off sandy soils along the Cher River, about 45 minutes west of Sancerre. Same grape, a fraction of the fame, and none of the Sancerre markup. White flowers, peach, and a mineral snap. This is what Loire insiders drink when nobody is watching.

White flowers, white peach, and light apple on the nose. Fresh and fruity palate, citrus with a hint of white pepper, finishing clean and mineral.

Classic matches for a red like this: Grilled and roasted meats, hearty pastas, aged cheeses.

Girard comes from a Sancerre winegrowing family and struck out on his own in 2012. The Quincy vines grow in the sandy, gravelly soils deposited by the Cher River.
