Product Description

The 2023 Sancerre Blanc ‘Le Pierrier’ from Domaine Thomas & Fils is a striking example of Sauvignon Blanc grown on flint-rich (silex) soils—an iconic terroir that brings tension, smokiness, and purity to the wine. The domaine, located in the heart of Sancerre near Verdigny, is known for organic farming and minimal intervention in the cellar.

‘Le Pierrier’ is vinified in stainless steel to preserve freshness, then aged on fine lees for added texture and finesse. The result is a vibrant, mineral-driven white with lifted aromatics and a long, mouthwatering finish. A reference-point expression of flinty Sancerre.
