"From a Bué estate that's currently converting to organics, the 2019 Sancerre Chêne Marchand is unfiltered. It exhibits a real sense of weight on the palate, roundness and seamlessness. It does not exhibit the zesty aromatics that Sauvignon Blanc is known for; instead, there's baked apples and dried fruit, though these ripe characteristics are followed by mouth watering acidity."

Ovide' is Pierre Morin's top wine. Made from 50 year-old vines from gravelly limestone soil, this is a stunning expression of Sauvignon.
