A vibrant, crisp, pleasing Sancerre with an appealing mix of tangy citrus and sweeter melon flavours followed by a long and focused finish.
Light gold in colour, this is a complex wine with a mixture of floral and citrus aromas, with notes of white flowers and passion fruit on the palate.
Domaine Paul Thomas is a family run winery which produces 25% Pinot Noir and 75% Sauvignon to produce their Sancerre wines. The vines for the ‘Comtesses Sancerre’ cuvée are located on the Monts Damnés, on hills exposed to the south-west where the land is white and chalky.
