Sancerre Ringer from a Top Domaine

We’re always on the lookout for new discoveries, even if it means covertly taking notes at a birthday celebration. 

VP of Wine Eduardo Dingler tells us, “The first time I tried Florian Mollet’s Le Roque was last year at a birthday dinner at [MICHELIN-starred] Saison. The wine paired incredibly with the tender smoked steelhead and it fit in beautifully alongside the wines we drank, like Comte Lafon’s Meursault Clos de la Baronne and Giacosa Barbaresco. The wine hung so effortlessly, I had to track it down!”

Florian Mollet’s Le Roque Sauvignon Blanc is a “Sancerre in disguise” if we ever saw one. Lemons. Gooseberries. Chalky limestone and elderflower. All the flavors that made Sancerre a household name are here. Hand-harvested from plots in Touraine, It’s Sauvignon Blanc fireworks in a glass.

After studying winemaking in Dijon and working abroad in South Africa and Australia, young winemaker Florian Mollet took over the family enterprise, Domaine du Roc de l'Abbaye, in 2000, with the goal of making it one of the finest estates in Sancerre. He was in a great position to do so, thanks to the Clos du Roc de l’Abbaye’ vineyard, one of the great terroirs of Sancerre, owned by his family since 1850.

The grapes for today’s wine come from Touraine, which lies east of the Sancerre zone. Touraine Sauvignon Blancs are some of the most reliable values from the Loire, and in warm, dry vintages like 2019, they approach Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé in quality. Florian Mollet’s 2019 is a terrific expression of the terroir and the grape, and it’s the perfect warm-weather wine to snap up by the case and pop with abandon!
