Prieure de Saint-Ceols Menetou-Salon 2023

Menetou-Salon lies just west of Sancerre, sharing the same prized Kimmeridgian marl but flying under the radar—until now. This organic Sauvignon Blanc from Joseph and Marie de Maistre is pure Loire magic: think green apple, citrus peel, spice, and a saline whisper carried on a silky texture.

The wine ferments naturally and rests on fine lees for added depth. Farming is organic (certified 2023), and everything from soil care to cellar restraint is about one thing—letting this exceptional terroir speak.

Menetou-Salon may be lesser known, but this bottle delivers Sancerre-level pedigree with a bit more generosity and soul. A wine for the apéro hour, seafood dinners, or anyone seeking Sauvignon Blanc that trades flash for finesse.
