Domaine Vincent GAUDRY
Sancerre Les Garennes red
- 2020
- Sancerre rouge
Quietly since his arrival at the head of the 11 ha of the family estate in the 90s, Vincent Gaudry has traced his path in search of the most precise and distinctive aromatic expressions of the grape variety and the terroir. His whites, with their aniseed tones (fennel), are vibrant and stimulating, while his reds have a delicate fullness that makes them noble. Radiant wines that do not give in to the fashion of modern Sancerre, too exotic and plump to be sincere.
Rated one star in the Revue du Vin de France's 2023 guide.
Vinified in whole bunches, Les Garennes is refined and elegant, silky and ripe on the palate, with great length and no feeling of heaviness. A great pinot noir!

The entry-level Le Tournebride is a blend of 3 parcels of flint, clay-limestone and caillottes (limestone chips). Mélodie de Vieilles Vignes, fatter and richer, comes from a clay-limestone hillside while Constellation du Scorpion, more complex and marked by flint, has a tense, long and salivating finish.The 2022 vintage is rated 93/100 by the Revue du Vin de France "A marvellous interpretation of Sauvignon. This cuvée, made from grapes grown on clay-limestone, flint and pebbles, sets the tone for a range of wines full of energy, flesh and delicacy from Vincent Gaudry. An irresistible fruity tenderness punctuated by a lovely finish. Delicious." (April 2024)
