Domaine Paul Thomas - (France)

Domaine Paul Thomas logo

The vineyards of Paul Thomas are located in the tranquil village of Chavignol at the foot of the Côte des Monts Damnés. The privileged soils contain a lot of lime and are similar to the infamous "Oyster Bank" grounds in Chablis. (Terre Blanche) Chavignol is also known as one of the few real origin names of cheese. Namely the famous Crottin de Chavignol. (Local goat cheese) This can, if not different, combine like any other with the local Sancerre wines. Nowadays, son Raphaël Thomas runs the small family business. Normally he aspired to a career in physics but after his father suddenly died in 2000 he decided to continue the family tradition. He attaches great importance to a natural vinification and fermentation in old traditional wooden barrels and wants to make an optimal expression of Sancerre of each cuvée. Each cooper of grapes is harvested manually and carried from the steep slopes. Because of the different characteristics of his land, he can produce some beautiful Sancerre's with various characters. His wines show an ideal balance between intensity and structure and ensure that every wine lover has the necessary drinking pleasure.

Nice mineral and slightly subdued nose of grapefruit, lime, green apple and notions of spiny berry. Tingling fresh in the mouth with a nice smokiness in the background. Noble and remarkably balanced character. Lively and long final.
