Claude Riffault Les Chasseignes 2023
The 2023 Les Chasseignes shows a creamy, lactic note that you won't have seen before, as there was a little malo here in 2023 for the first time. There's a cooler, greener nature, with green herbs joining ripe apple flesh and pear. It remains fresh with a fine, chalky texture but lacks a little of the usual persistence on the finish.
Locations called âLes Chasseignesâ are common in Sancerre. This local name designates caillottes soil: shallow limestone soil and subsoil containing overlapping stones. StĂ©phaneâs lieu-dit of this name is located north of his home and cellars in the village of Sury-en-Vaux. Released in late spring along with Les Boucauds (terres blanches), Les Chasseignes shows the nervier style of wine typical from this distinct terroir.
