Viniou - wine cellar management made simple
The Sancerre "Cuvée Le Chêne Doré" by Emilien Brissez is a notable white wine hailing from the esteemed vineyards of the Centre in the Loire Valley, France. This wine, although non-vintage, follows the revered traditions of the region known for its expressive Sauvignon Blanc grape. The terroir of Sancerre is distinguished by its chalky, limestone-rich soil, which imparts a crisp minerality to the wines, while the moderate continental climate with its cool nights and warm days contributes to the development of vibrant acidity and aromatic complexity.
The Loire Valley itself is one of France's pivotal wine regions, celebrated for its diversity of wine styles and historical winemaking. Sancerre, specifically, is renowned for its pure, varietal Sauvignon Blanc wines that often showcase aromas of citrus fruits, white flowers, and a hint of flint. The history of winemaking here dates back to the Roman era, with a resurgence in reputation in the 20th century, bolstered by its geographical proximity to Paris.
For pairing with "Cuvée Le Chêne Doré", consider dishes that enhance its zesty and mineral characteristics. This wine pairs beautifully with classic Loire Valley cuisine such as goat cheese, particularly the region's own Crottin de Chavignol. It also complements seafood dishes like grilled sea bass or fresh oysters, as well as light salads and asparagus, all of which allow the wine's freshness and delicate fruit flavours to shine.
When it comes to tasting this Sancerre, it is best served at a temperature of 10-12°C (50-54°F) to maintain its aromatic profile. Pour it into a glass that allows the bouquet to circulate and let's its lively acidity and intricate texture reveal themselves on the palate. Enjoy it as an aperitif or alongside your meal for a delightful expression of Loire Valley craftsmanship.
