PRODUCT OVERVIEW/REVIEW:
After many years working for other wineries, including his family's estate in the Loire, Girard took the plunge and struck out on his own, purchasing an estate in the hamlet of Récy, with vineyards in both Sancerre and Menetou-Salon. The large key on the label represents one that he was given upon purchasing the property, and the name "La Clef du Récit," was born.
Girard lavishes plenty of time in the vineyards yet guides rather than dominates the process of growing grapes and lets nature take the lead. The result: beautiful, expressive wines that deftly balance ripe fruit characters, acidity, and terroir.
Today's wine is sourced from grapes grown in soils rich with a type of limestone known as "caillote" which gives the wine freshness, and flint, which adds minerality. These characters perfectly complement the wine's lemon zest, pineapple, and passion fruit flavors. Check out the press!
90 points, Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"This wine is textured, tight with minerality, and full of young white fruits. Still developing, it has good potential as well as concentration. With a juicy aftertaste, the wine will be delicious from 2023."
