The 2007 Edmond Vatan Sancerre Clos la Neore is a highly regarded Sauvignon Blanc from the Upper Loire Valley, known for its green and flinty style. The 2007 Loire Valley vintage was a mixed bag, with an early budbreak and flowering prompted by a balmy spring and baking April, though conditions later turned unsettled. Despite this, the Clos la Neore from Edmond Vatan consistently receives high praise from critics and users alike. 【Top 1% of wines in the world】 Tasting notes reveal a pale yellow hue with a complex bouquet of lime, lemon zest, wet stone, flowers, and a hint of smoky herbs. It is bright and energetic, yet youthfully taut, offering tangy citrus and underripe orchard fruit flavors underscored by dusty minerals and bitter quinine. The finish is stony, focused, and very pure, suggesting this uncompromising, mineral-driven wine will benefit significantly from a few more years of bottle age. Food Pairing: This crisp Sancerre is a match made in heaven with meaty and oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, swordfish, monkfish, and tuna. It also pairs wonderfully with shellfish, pork, vegetarian dishes, and goat's milk cheese. Fit to Event: The 2007 Edmond Vatan Sancerre Clos la Neore is perfect for a sophisticated seafood dinner, a summer garden party, or as an aperitif to impress discerning guests. Its mineral-driven profile also makes it an excellent companion for a quiet evening of contemplation.
