The 2023 Guigne-Chèvres underscores Vacheron’s finesse with high-altitude, limestone-rich parcels in Sancerre, where thin, stony soils and windswept exposures yield Sauvignon Blanc of piercing clarity and lift. The wine opens with vibrant citrus, green pear, and white flowers, carried by a racy mineral line that reflects the vineyard’s chalky, hillside terroir. Subtle herbal and crushed-stone nuances add detail, while the vintage’s natural freshness keeps the palate taut, linear, and quietly intense. Elegant, energetic, and thoroughly site-expressive, this is a refined, shimmering Sancerre that captures the finesse of one of Vacheron’s most delicate lieux-dits.
