Introduction:
A vibrant, precise Sancerre from Henri  Bourgeois, the 2024 vintage delivers a lively expression of Loire Valley terroir. It balances fresh acidity, crystalline fruit, and mineral elegance—representative of top-tier Sancerre.

Terroir:
The vineyard lies between Chavignol and Sancerre, rooted in flinty clays and limestone soils. These well-drained, mineral-rich soils help preserve purity of fruit and structure. The vines are cultivated with low yields and high density, and inter-row grassing enhances soil and vine health.

Appearance:
Pale straw with subtle green reflections, showing brightness and clarity in the glass.

Nose:
Aromas of fresh citrus, white peach, green apple, and pear lead the bouquet. A flinty, mineral-driven backbone lends complexity and precision.

Palate:
Medium-bodied and crisp, with flavors of lemon zest, pear, and underripe melon. A linear structure supports the bright fruit with a chalky, saline edge. Hints of eucalyptus and a clean, stony character evolve with time in the glass.

Finish:
Long and mineral-laced, with citrus oils and wet stone persisting on the palate. The refreshing acidity keeps the finish clean and lifted.

Overall Impression:
The 2024 Henri Bourgeois Sancerre is a refined, terroir-focused wine with brilliant acidity, delicate fruit, and precise minerality. Its purity and structure make it a benchmark expression of Sancerre. It pairs beautifully with oysters, goat cheese (especially Crottin de Chavignol), shellfish, grilled white fish, and citrus-accented salads—each dish enhancing its sharp mineral and citrus-driven profile.
