The 2025 Domaine Christian Salmon Sancerre AC is a classic Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc from the limestone and clay-limestone slopes of Bué. The nose is bright and aromatic, showing lime, citrus and green apple with fresh herbal notes and a distinctive mineral edge. The Salmon family has cultivated vineyards around Sancerre for six generations.
On the palate, it is dry and lively with crisp acidity driving lemon, lime and citrus flavours. A subtle minty note adds freshness, while the limestone-influenced minerality gives the wine definition through a clean, focused finish. The 2025 is 100% Sauvignon Blanc and sits at 13% alcohol.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Sancerre drinkers who enjoy crisp, mineral-driven Sauvignon Blanc with citrus freshness and subtle herbal character. Best enjoyed young and chilled. Pair with oysters, grilled prawns, goat’s cheese, sea bass, asparagus or light seafood dishes.
