Paul Prieur et Fils Sancerre “Les Monts Damnés” 2023 is a prestigious single-vineyard Sauvignon Blanc from one of the most renowned terroirs in Chavignol, within the Sancerre appellation of France’s Loire Valley. “Les Monts Damnés,” meaning “The Damned Hills,” is famous for its steep slopes and Kimmeridgian limestone soils, producing wines of remarkable minerality, precision, and ageing potential.
Crafted with a terroir-driven philosophy, this cuvée is vinified in stainless steel to preserve aromatic purity and freshness while allowing the vineyard’s distinctive chalky character to shine. The 2023 vintage delivers vibrant citrus fruit, layered texture, and elegant tension, combining richness with classic Loire freshness.
This is a sophisticated and highly expressive Sancerre suitable for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring.
