Located in Bué, in the Loire Valley, the Thierry Merlin-Cherrier Domain was created in the early 80s. Thierry Merlin is the fourth generation of winegrowers and his estate is a family business. The 14 hectares of vines are planted on the communes of Sancerre and Bué. The main grape variety is Sauvignon Blanc, with a few Pinot Noir plants.
Based on the principle that for a good wine, you need beautiful grapes, the Domaine Thierry Merlin-Cherrier practises reasoned pest management: light Guyot pruning with removal of unnecessary branches and grapes, reintroduction of auxiliary fauna, such as ladybirds. Domaine Merlin-Cherrier has been rewarded with numerous medals, a "coup de coeur" from the Guide Hachette, but above all by the loyalty of its customers. The Sancerre has also been awarded the silver medal at the Loire Wine Competition.
Thierry Merlin's Sancerre is 100% Sauvignon Blanc. The chalky terroir of Bué is concentrated in this tranquil white. The robe is a light gold colour, almost transparent with silvery reflections. Its nose gives off aromas of pear, elderflower and vine flower. On the palate, it is frank, tense, with notes of flowers, lemon and mirabelle plums. It goes wonderfully with fish, a cheese platter, especially goat's cheese and will be perfect as an aperitif.

Le bouquet du 2021 se distingue par sa subtilité et par la précision dont il est doté. Il révèle d'invitantes nuances de fleurs de tilleul et une touche de fruits jaunes. De caractère élancé en bouche, le vin est idéalement soutenu par sa structure qui lui confère fraîcheur et salinité. 89/100 - Review by Adrian

Kühle, fruchtbetonte Nase, sehr offen, Zitrusfrüchte, dezent Stein, eine Herbe schwingt mit. Im Gaumen zugänglich, fruchtig, zeigt reife, mehr Mineralik, als die Nase andeutete. Sehr schöne Länge. Ein perfekter Apéro-Sancerre für ein überschaubares Budget.

Blasses Gelb. Elegantes und angenehmes Bouquet mit Zitrus- und Passionsfrucht. Es treten auch Cassisnoten auf. Erfrischender und filigraner Gaumen. Ein leichter und süffiger Wein der jetzt schon Genuss bietet. 2015-2018. 87/100
