2023 Vincent Gaudry Le Tournebride Sancerre

Vincent explains that, historically, when Sancerre was still sold by the barrel to satisfy the thirst of Paris bistros, négociants used to blend wines from the three different terroirs of Sancerre in equal parts to make a complete wine that travels well. Cuvée ‘Le Tournebride’, the primary wine of the domaine, is made in reference to this tradition. For Vincent, ‘Le Tournebride’ represents a complete, transparent expression of Sancerre, delicately perfumed with a touch of gras and mineral tension.
