2025 Michel Thomas et Fils Sancerre

Ripe white peach, lemon zest, and pink grapefruit burst forward alongside subtle notes of white flowers and gunflint. Driven by crisp, electric acidity and a lightly textured middle, it cuts straight into a long, chalky, and intensely saline finish.

Fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to preserve purity of fruit, with no oak contact or malolactic fermentation. Aging on the lees for a few months adds depth and weight to the mid-palate without softening the wine's vibrant focus.

Forty parcels across Sury-en-Vaux and neighboring villages in Sancerre, spanning three distinct terroirs: 40% Kimmeridgian clay-limestone (Terre Blanche), 40% stony limestone (Caillottes), and 20% flint (Silex). This balance of soils delivers a benchmark expression of aromatic intensity, fruit weight, and dense minerality.
