Vacheron Sancerre Le Paradis Blanc

Winemaker notes

Floral and mineral expressing the chalky and iodine character of the soil. Food-wine pairing with seafood, pikeperch, salmon, sea bass, or chavignol crottin goat cheese. Ageing potential 8 to 10 years.

2022

James Suckling 93: A seductive white that’s textural and broad, yet it has verticality and sharpness. Aromas of dried lemon peel, white peaches, flowers and stones. Medium-bodied with bright acidity. Well structured, precise and focused, with a stony, mineral core bringing vitality and drive. Fresh and attractive. Drink or hold.

Vinous 90: The 2022 Le Paradis offers up ripe lemon and nectarines on the nose. Delightfully textured, the clay-limestone soils give a tender generosity. This calm, finely textured style has a delicate, chalky feel. The 2022 is finely poised and carefully handled.
