Paul et Jean-Marc Pastou, “La Côte de Sury”, Sancerre, France 2022
$45.00
From the highest, older-vine vineyards in Sury, northwest of Sancerre. This is Sauvignon Blanc in its purest form: aromas of chalk and lemon blossoms, a mouthful of freshly squeezed citrus and a sea-salty, tangy finish.

The petite village of Sury-en-Vaux, northwest of Sancerre, is the secret home of the extraordinarily character-rich wines of the Pastou family. Winemaker Jean-Marc Pastou for some 30 years has followed a singular calling to make the most honest and terroir-true Sancerre his few acres will give.
His vineyards sit at the highest point in the village, and his older vines (that he planted himself) grow on perfect terroir: the classic chalky stones and flinty soils which give Sancerre its characteristic zip.
Our importer chooses from the family’s few temperature-controlled tanks the most expressive, older-vine Sancerre Blanc to bottle unfined and unfiltered as the ‘La Côte de Sury,’ a special wine that captures the essence of what great Sancerre should be—enlivening and satisfying.
