Fans of crisp white wines won’t go far wrong choosing a bottle of Sancerre.
Considered by many to be the ultimate French white, Sancerre is actually made from 100 per cent Sauvignon Blanc grapes. That doesn’t mean all Sauvignon Blanc is Sancerre, however. To be labelled as such, the wine must be produced in the officially designated region on the eastern side of France’s Loire Valley, known for its rolling hills, continental climate and varied soils including limestone and clay.
