Sancerre Blanc La Guiberte Alain Gueneau 2024

Crisp and expressive, this Sancerre opens with aromas of lime zest, grapefruit, and green apple, complemented by hints of elderflower and crushed stone. The palate is bright and precise, showing vibrant citrus fruit, fresh acidity, and a taut mineral backbone that gives the wine real energy. Pale straw in colour, it finishes clean, dry, and refreshing, with a lingering flinty edge.
