The white wine Henri Bourgeois Le Cotelin Sancerre, vintage 2016 from the winery Domaine Henri Bourgeois has been rated in 2022 by Anne Krebiehl MW with 96 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Sauvignon Blanc from the region Sancerre in France.
This is from Kimmeridgian clay and opens with an earthy, rich nose that is reminiscent of hay. It is on the palate that an intense chalkiness takes over, anchored in cool, cool depth. This has an outstanding sense of place and much intensity, all silhouetted by purest lemon. Unbelievable and so long.
