2025 JM Reverdy & Fils "La Villaudière" Sancerre, Loire Valley - 750ML

J.M. Reverdy & Fils crafts La Villaudière from a broad mosaic of parcels spanning Sancerre’s three principal terroirs, giving the wine a particularly complete view of the appellation. The 2025 is bright and energetic, emphasizing Sauvignon Blanc’s citrus-driven freshness, aromatic lift and mineral character.

Blend: 100% Sauvignon Blanc.

Tasting Notes: Fresh lemon, green apple and gooseberry lead the nose, joined by white peach, subtle floral tones and a lightly herbal edge. The palate is crisp and focused, with lively citrus and orchard fruit carried through a clean, mineral-driven finish.

Structure: Dry and refreshing, with brisk acidity providing tension and definition. The fruit has enough weight through the mid-palate to balance the wine’s more linear, mineral side.

Drink Window: 2026–2030. Best enjoyed while its citrus fruit, aromatic freshness and mineral precision remain at the forefront.

Decanting: No decanting is necessary. Serve well chilled but not icy, allowing a few minutes in the glass for the aromatics and mineral character to emerge.

La Villaudière offers a classic, versatile expression of Sancerre with the freshness to serve as an aperitif and enough substance for the table. Its citrus, herbal and mineral profile makes it a natural match for oysters, shellfish, grilled fish, fresh goat cheese and lighter vegetable dishes.
