Gerard Boulay, Sancerre Clos de Beaujeu, 2024
Some of Sancerre's most coveted wines come from Chavignol, and Boulay's Clos de Beaujeu is a walled parcel sitting right beside the legendary Monts Damnes slope. This is one of the steepest sites Boulay farms—a gradient so severe it can only be worked by hand—on rocky, fossil-packed Kimmeridgian limestone, the same marine bedrock that gives Chablis its cut. The vines here date to the early 1950s, and Boulay farms them organically, fermenting with native yeasts and aging in neutral barrels so the site speaks for itself. Of his single-vineyard Sauvignon Blancs, this is the deepest and most structured—a savory, spice-tinged Sancerre built to age.
