2020 Sancerre, François Millet, Loire Valley
Sancerre is undeniably one of the world’s best-loved wines, and tasting the new vintage of François Millet’s perennial favourite it’s easy to see why. The new 2020 vintage of François Millet's stunning Sancerre has purity and freshness with a fine balance of subtle mineral notes and particularly pronounced ripe fruit. This is sauvignon blanc at its best, and everything you could wish for in a top Sancerre.
François Millet' vineyards are in the village of Bué, regarded as one of the top sites in Sancerre (west of the Loire river). It has become so well-associated with distinctive and high-quality wines that it is frequently referred to as a ‘Cru’ of Sancerre – a site of superior quality and exceptional provenance.
Tasting note:
This refreshing Sancerre has a fine balance of subtle mineral aromas and hints of newly-cut grass that make for an enticing nose. The palate is one of crisp green apple, citrus and a touch of tropical fruit. The warm vintage has resulted in a luscious style, similar to that of 2018, there's a richness to the palate whilst retaining the all-important hint of minerality and a racy, crisp finish.
