Executive Context
When to Order
The clean, refreshing aperitif. Order when a lighter white is needed or when dining at a seafood restaurant. Sancerre from Loire Valley elevates this to prestige territory.
Say This at the Table
"I'll start with a Sancerre if you have one — or a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Crisp and clean is exactly what I want."
