Gerad Millet AOC Sancerre Salon Blanc

Crafted in the picturesque village of Bué, just outside the heart of Sancerre, Domaine Steve Millet Sancerre 2022reflects five generations of family winemaking tradition. The 23-hectare estate is planted predominantly with Sauvignon Blanc (80%) and Pinot Noir (20%), grown across Sancerre and Menetou-Salon’s most expressive terroirs. Known for its precision and balance, this wine captures the essence of the Loire Valley — vibrant, mineral, and unmistakably elegant.

Tasting Notes:

  • Color: Pale gold with glints of green.

  • Aroma: Fresh citrus, green apple, and white peach mingle with floral notes and the signature flinty minerality of Sancerre.

  • Palate: Crisp and pure, offering a lively balance between fruit and acidity. Layers of grapefruit, pear, and lemon zest evolve into a long, mineral-driven finish.

  • Finish: Clean, elegant, and refreshing — the perfect expression of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc.

Food Pairing Recommendations:
A natural companion to seafood and light cuisine. Pairs beautifully with oysters, grilled fish, goat cheese (especially Crottin de Chavignol), and crisp green salads. Its bright acidity also complements Mediterranean dishes, sushi, and roasted vegetables.
