Tasting note
Domaine Thomas & Fils Sancerre “Ultimus” 2023 is a premium Sauvignon Blanc crafted from old vines over 60 years of age. Rich, powerful, and beautifully structured, it reveals intense aromas of ripe pear, quince, and citrus, layered with a distinctive flinty, smoky minerality. The palate is full-bodied yet precise, balanced by vibrant, nervy acidity and a long, refined finish. A serious Sancerre with excellent ageing potential.
More About The Winery
The small 9ha estate of Domaine Thomas has been in the family since the 1670s, with ninth generation winegrowers Jean and Ginette Thomas, and their son Julien and partner Justine running the domaine today.
The domaine, which grows Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, is located in the village of Verdigny in Sancerre, with a high proportion of its vineyards located on the highly sought-after Silex soil that makes the most aromatic and pungent Sauvignons that the region is famous for.
Wild yeast fermentation is key in setting Domaine Thomas’s wines apart, in an appellation where selected yeasts are still the norm, and so does extended ageing on the lees, combined with low use of sulphur. The domaine also manages the vineyard according to biodynamic principles.
