The Neveu family has been farming these slopes for generations, working with the three distinct soil types that define Sancerre's terroir: \u003cem\u003esilex\u003c\/em\u003e (flint), \u003cem\u003eterres blanches\u003c\/em\u003e (clay-limestone), and \u003cem\u003ecalcaire\u003c\/em\u003e (pure limestone). The Calcaire cuvée is the domaine's purest expression of limestone terroir — a wine grown on the chalky, calcium-rich soils that produce Sancerre of extraordinary mineral tension, precision, and length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003ePale gold with a bright, crystalline clarity. The nose is immediately expressive and precise — white grapefruit, lemon zest, and green apple lead, followed by a compelling thread of wet chalk, crushed flint, and white blossom. A subtle herbaceous lift adds complexity and freshness. On the palate, focused and linear — medium-bodied with vibrant, mouthwatering acidity, a silky texture, and a long, mineral, saline finish that lingers with real persistence. Sancerre at its most precise and terroir-driven.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle \u0026amp; Drinking Window\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003ePure, mineral-driven Loire Sauvignon Blanc with exceptional focus, freshness, and length.
