The “La Pointe” parcel sits on Ménetou-Salon’s famous Kimmeridgian limestone soils — the same ancient seabed geology that defines great Sancerre, just a few kilometers to the east. Ménetou-Salon is one of the Loire’s best-kept secrets: a small appellation producing Sauvignon Blanc of genuine mineral character and Sancerre-level quality at a fraction of the price. Grapes are pressed immediately after harvest, with juice flowing by gravity into tank, racked 48 hours later, and aged on lees for 8–9 months for added texture and complexity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePale gold with a green tinge in the glass, with a pronounced, aromatic nose of gooseberry, fresh grass, ripe quince, and a clean mineral lift from the Kimmeridgian limestone. On the palate: crisp and refreshing, with flavors of melon, citrus, and white stone fruit, carried by bright acidity and a clean, mineral finish that lingers. The lees aging adds just enough texture to give the wine real presence without sacrificing freshness. Drink now through 2026. Pair with Crottin de Chavignol goat cheese, oysters on the half shell, grilled white fish, shrimp ceviche, or asparagus quiche.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Domaine La Gemière · Millet Family (est. 1981)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWine:\u003c\/strong\u003e La Pointe · Ménetou-Salon AOC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ménetou-Salon, Loire Valley, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Sauvignon Blanc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoils:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kimmeridgian limestone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAging:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8–9 months on lees · Gravity-flow winemaking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crisp, mineral, aromatic Loire Sauvignon Blanc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e Now–2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gooseberry, fresh grass, quince, melon, citrus, white stone fruit, mineral finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePair With:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crottin de Chavignol · Oysters · Grilled white fish · Shrimp ceviche · Asparagus quiche\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eKimmeridgian limestone, Sancerre’s neighbor — Ménetou-Salon’s finest value in a glass.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"67Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47366511132955,"sku":"N2156336","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/1789\/4171\/files\/slsusngjeavs4dkjs1ee.jpg?v=1782390957","url":"https:\/\/67wine.com\/products\/domaine-la-gemiere-menetou-salon-la-pointe-2024-750ml","provider":"67","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
