Pascal Jolivet Sancerre 75cl

Crisp, high-energy Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre, the Loire Valley’s answer to “I want a white wine with real bite.” This one’s all about bright citrus, green fruit, and that signature flinty, mineral snap that keeps your palate awake.

• Appearance: Pale straw with green flashes, clear and bright.
• Nose: Lemon zest, grapefruit, green apple, fresh-cut herbs, and a stony, flint-like lift.
• Taste: Dry and zesty, loaded with citrus and crisp orchard fruit, with a clean mineral edge and mouthwatering acidity.
• Body: Light to medium-bodied, more “refreshing” than “rich.”
• Finish: Long, clean, and slightly salty-mineral, like a squeeze of lemon over something fresh from the sea.

If you’ve ever had a Sauvignon Blanc that felt loud in the wrong way, this is the reset button. It’s focused, bright, and layered, fruit up front, herbs and stone underneath, and a finish that makes food taste better. That’s the Sancerre superpower.

It’s also a bottle that rewards curiosity. Take a sip, then another, and you start noticing the little shifts, citrus to green fruit, green fruit to herbs, herbs to that flinty mineral thing that’s hard to describe but easy to crave.

When you want French white wine that doesn’t feel heavy or boring, this is the move. It’s the kind of pour that makes you understand why people get a bit obsessed with Sancerre.

Fun Fact: Pascal Jolivet is known for a light-touch approach in the cellar, including wild yeast fermentations on many cuvées, which helps keep the wine’s flavour feeling vivid and honest.
