WineO Mark Review
La Legende de Saint-Martin Cuvee Prestige Sancerre is an exquisite representation of the finesse that the Loire Valley brings to the world of wine. This wine offers a textbook example of what top-tier Sauvignon Blanc from this region is.
On the nose, it boasts classic Sancerre notes: mineral, white peach, and flint, with subtle undertones of citrus fruits and white flowers.
The palate has a razor-sharp acidity yet its perfectly balanced, allowing flavors of lemon zest, green apple, and subtle tropical fruits to shine through. The mineral backbone, characteristic of Sancerre’s chalky and flinty soils, adds depth and complexity to the wine, culminating in a long and refreshing finish.
In summary, this Sancerre is a wine that speaks of its origin, offering a harmonious blend of fruit, acidity, and minerality.
