Lauverjat, Sauvignon Blanc, Sancerre "Moulin des Vrillères" Loire Valley, France 2023

Lauverjat's "Moulin des Vrillères" is an unbeatable quality Sancerre for the price. From thirty year-old vines grown in a clay-limestone soil predominantly in Sury-en-Vaux. Fermented and aged in stainless steel, spending a total of three months on the lees.

The Lauverjat family has been farming in Sancerre for generations in the tiny village of Sury-en-Vaux. For many years, the family had a mill on a tiny river called La Belaine that is next to the winery and they used to mill their own wheat; the winery is still known by some as the "Moulin des Vrillères".
