Saumur Blanc is one of the Loire's most underrated whites, and Sables Verts farms barely a hectare of Chenin among its mostly red holdings, which makes this a small but serious bottling. Caroline Meuree and Herve Malinge took over the historic domaine in 2019 and farm as naturally as possible (HVE-certified, with organic conversion underway). The name Sables Verts refers to the green marine sand beneath the tuffeau, the geological signature of the appellation and a reliable engine of Loire Chenin tension. The 2024 is taut, stony and gently citric, more chiselled than tropical, with the kind of saline drive that puts oysters and fresh goat cheese in mind before anything else.

Loire Valley Wines

The Loire Valley is France’s greatest source of value for anyone looking for elegant, terroir-driven wines. Our collection celebrates the region’s great diversity, with the mineral-driven whites of Muscadet and Sancerre, the beautiful Chenin Blancs and Cabernet Francs from villages like Vouvray and Chinon, and natural wines from everywhere in the region. Sometimes wonderfully fresh and gulpable, sometimes serious and age-worthy, the prices are always very reasonable.
