Our white Sancerre “ES-56” in Wine Spectator’s TOP 100 Wines of The World
For the second time in the history of Domaine Henri Bourgeois, one of our wines has been listed in Wine Spectator magazine’s TOP 100 Wines of the World. More than 15,000 wines from over 60 wine-growing regions around the world were tasted, and the 2022 vintage of our white Sancerre “ES-56” was selected for the TOP 100. This rare distinction rewards the year-round work of our teams in the vineyards and in the cellar.
Wine Spectator magazine shares its tasting notes:
“A distinctive Sancerre, with fleshy persimmon, yellow plum and verbena notes. Offers plenty of richness buoyed by a salty mineral layer, while dried herb details and tangy acidity wash through. A waft of smoke hangs over the long finish, marked by a bitter kick of pink grapefruit pith. Drink now through 2032.” Sancerre blanc “ES-56” 2022 – 92 points
