Richard Reymond is the man behind this terrific Sancerre. From a winemaking family, he named this wine after his grandfather Lucien, who practiced his craft in the Rhône Valley but yearned to make wine in Sancerre. While he never realized that dream, Richard made this accomplishment in his honor, and today's wine is an homage to him.

Working as a négociant, Richard sourced premium fruit from a certified organic (and biodynamic) grower with holdings throughout the region.

Aged sur-lie in tanks for 12 months before bottling, today's Sancerre is layered and complex, deftly balancing lush texture and weight (thank you, lees-aging) with bright acidity.

Citrus aromas lead to a palate that abounds with flavors of grapefruit, lemon peel, peach, Honeydew melon, honeysuckle, mango, and Spring herbs. Stony minerality is woven throughout the fruit characters, a nod to the wine's Kimmeridgian origins. The finish is long and bright, begging you to take another sip.
