- Quincy is a very small appellation southwest of Sancerre, covering only 270 hectares along the river Cher, a tributary of the Loire (compare that to >2800 hectares in Sancerre). It is one of the driest and warmest areas in Centre Loire which creates a uniquely delicious expression of Sauvignon Blanc and one of exceptional value compared to larger appellations like Sancerre. This wine is a scrumptious Quincy. The twenty year old vines bring out the fruit and balance of the Sauvignon Blanc, while the old vines deliver up all their concentration and complexity. The wine has a brilliant, pale yellow color. Very expressive aromas of ripe fruit can be detected on the nose. On the palate, the wine is well-balanced and complex. Here we can feel the full force of the old vines bringing forth the full expression of the terroir.
