The Deeply Satisfying Sancerres of Thomas-Labaille
Most Sancerre is built for patios.
This isn’t.
This is the kind of Sancerre that leans closer to white Burgundy — richer, broader, and actually worth paying attention to. Old vines in Monts Damnés, one of the steepest and most serious sites in the appellation, farmed the hard way because there’s no other option. The result: texture, depth, and a wine that evolves in the glass instead of disappearing.
The lineup:
2023 Thomas-Labaille “Les Monts Damnés”
2024 Thomas-Labaille “Les Monts Damnés”
2024 “Cuvée Buster”
From the archives (Louis/Dressner):
“Cotat… and my friend Claude.”
That thread now runs through the Labaille family.
- Old vines from the brutal slopes of Monts Damnés
- Leesy texture with real weight
- Finishes long, salty, and quietly powerful
