Thomas Labaille "l'Authentique" Sancerre 2023 Orange A soft texture and sweetThomas Labaille is an under the radar producer of Sauvignon Blanc in Chavignol, the most famous village in Sancerre. With old vines and traditional technique, he produces some of the most concentrated and pristine examples of this grape in the world. 2023 is a continuation of string of successful vintages in the last decade, fruit forward but brilliantly framed with acidity and minerality.
