Description

The family-run Henri Bourgeois is at the forefront of quality Sancerre as this fantastic example demonstrates. It’s made from old Sauvignon Blanc vines grown on ancient flinty soils and the result is a wine with great minerality, intensity and excellent ageing potential.

(The unique terroir was formed during the Eocene period, 56 million years ago - hence the "ES-56" in the wine’s name.)

Tasting Note

The ""ES-56"" white Sancerre offers incomparable balance and concentration. Its nose, with notes of gunflint and spices, is also reminiscent of Sauvignon flower and its sap. A proud, intense cuvée that will reveal all its elegance and finesse over the years.
