CAILLOTTES SANCERRE
LOIRE VALLEY 2021
Domaine La Villaudière is a multi-generational winery run by Jean-Marie Reverdy and his wife Catherine, with the help of their elder son and estate winemaker Guillaume. They handcraft brilliant Sancerre, centered around sustainability, family, and preserving classic Sancerre terroir. The Sancerre AOC brings a level of sophistication to Sauvignon Blanc, unmatched by any other region in the world, with traditional farming practices and winemaking techniques passed down for generations.
The winery sources this stunning Sauvignon Blanc from vines grown on the renowned Caillottes soil, known for producing fruit with elaborate aromatics. The 2021 ‘Caillottes’ Sancerre offers a specific sense of place, capturing the chalky minerality and zesty citrus fruit that’s part of the region’s identity and why it’s celebrated worldwide as the epitome of Sauvignon Blanc.

“Domaine La Villaudière 2021 ‘Caillottes’ Sancerre opens with aromas of bay leaf, rosemary, lime, white peach, and crushed sea shells. On the palate, the wine displays vibrant acidity and flavors of grapefruit, lemon yogurt, and gooseberry. This wine is mineral and citrus fruit-driven, balanced by a soft mouthfeel with remarkable concentration.”
