Quincy Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 2018 Domaine Tremblay
The Quincy Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 2018 by Domaine Tremblay is one of the finest expressions of the Quincy appellation, one of the oldest designations in the Loire Valley. This wine is crafted from carefully selected Sauvignon Blanc grapes sourced from vineyards over 50 years old, which provide depth, complexity and remarkable aromatic richness.
The terroir is essential in shaping the wine’s character. The vines grow on sandy and clay-gravel soils, which ensure excellent drainage and allow the deep roots of old vines to extract minerals that enrich the wine. The result is a Sauvignon Blanc marked by vibrant freshness, minerality and tension, typical traits of the best Loire whites.
Fermentation takes place under controlled temperatures to preserve the natural aromas, while careful vinification highlights the grape’s varietal purity and the unique personality of the Quincy terroir.
In the glass, it shows a bright straw-yellow color. The bouquet is complex, with fresh citrus, white peach, floral notes and subtle herbal hints of sage and thyme. On the palate, it is vibrant and harmonious, with crisp acidity balanced by refined minerality. The finish is long and elegant, offering both immediate drinkability and great aging potential. Over time, the wine develops richer nuances of ripe fruits, honey and depth, while maintaining its freshness.
The Quincy Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 2018 by Domaine Tremblay is a versatile food-pairing wine: ideal with oysters, shellfish, fish in sauce, delicate white meats and Loire goat cheeses. It is also an excellent collector’s wine, representing the authentic soul of Sauvignon Blanc in Quincy and the heritage of old vines in the Loire Valley.
