Alcohol/vol 15%
This wine is full of aromas such as lime, verbena but also delicate mineral nuances (flint). In mouth, fresh touch of grapefruits, almonds, hawthorn and light touch of coconuts. Its minerality gives it a great length. Concentrated, full and fine, equally excellent when young or up to 6 - 8 years ageing. Sancerre "D'Antan" is an excellent companion to fish, shellfish and white meat. Grilled lobster, turbot in a meat sauce and spit-roasted sweetbreads with a truffle sauce: a few delicacies matching perfectly this fine wine. Or tempt your guests with a vacherin cheese from Mont d'Or with dried pears!

From flint soil, this rich wine with touches of spice is full and dense. Hints of toast and a tangy, still-youthful texture bring out power and potential. Drink from 2024.

Rich and creamy, with green lime, apple blossoms, peach and quince layered with fresh herbs and spring onion, all resting on a bed of wet rock. Harmonious and balanced through the peppery, crackling finish, which packs a kick of ginger. Drink now through 2027. 1,500 cases made.

The 2020 Sancerre d'Antan is a powerful, aromatic style of Sauvignon Blanc. It offers up rich blackcurrant flavors and dill alongside ripe lemon meringue. A hint of spritz opens up proceedings before it expands in the mouth, becoming rich and intense. Hailing from flint soils, it characteristically tightens and firms up on the straigh-lined finish.
