Domaine Fouassier Les Chailloux Sancerre

Les Chailloux is a white Sancerre from Domaine Fouassier, made from sauvignon blanc in the Loire. The domain is known for working biodynamically. The cuvée takes its name from the local word for the flint-rich soils it grows on, which lend a marked minerality, often linked with gunflint notes, and a taut, precise style. The nose is led by citrus, lemon and white fruit, with a mineral, faintly smoky edge. The palate is lively and straight, with citrus flavours and well-integrated acidity. The finish is long, lemony and saline.
