The wine comes from Domaine Didier Dagueneau, based in Saint-Andelain, an estate renowned for producing singular, age-worthy Sauvignon Blancs with remarkable purity and mineral expression. Pur Sang was one of Didier Dagueneau’s pioneering single-parcel wines, first introduced in 1988 after En Chailloux. The name “Pur Sang” translates to “thoroughbred,” reflecting the wine’s intensity, precision and distinctive character. The 2023 release is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc and classified as Vin de France, while remaining closely tied to the Pouilly-Fumé sector of the Loire. Fruit for Pur Sang is associated with the La Folie vineyard, located north of Saint-Andelain, with deep clay-limestone soils and very little silex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, the wine is fermented and aged in French oak vessels, including larger barrels that help build texture while preserving freshness and line. Dagueneau’s approach is known for meticulous vineyard work, low yields, lees contact and a strong commitment to expressing site over simple varietal fruitiness. The 2023 Pur Sang shows the domaine’s signature combination of ripe citrus, orchard fruit, smoke, chalk and saline minerality. It is powerful yet finely controlled, offering both concentration and precision. The palate carries green apple, white peach, citrus peel, quince and flinty mineral depth, supported by energetic acidity. A chalky, saline finish gives the wine length and tension, making it a serious and age-worthy expression of Sauvignon Blanc. It pairs beautifully with oysters, shellfish, grilled lobster, goat’s cheese, herb-roasted chicken and refined seafood dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Intensely aromatic and mineral\u003cbr\u003eWhite peach, citrus zest, green apple, quince, smoky flint, fresh herbs and chalk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Powerful and precise\u003cbr\u003eRipe citrus, orchard fruit, saline minerality, chalky texture, vibrant acidity and subtle oak-derived depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long and focused\u003cbr\u003eLingering citrus, flint, sea spray, chalk, fresh herbs and firm mineral tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle – White Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal – Sauvignon Blanc\u003cbr\u003eCountry – France\u003cbr\u003eRegion – Loire Valley, Vin de France\u003cbr\u003eVintage – 2023\u003cbr\u003eBottle Size – 750ml\u003cbr\u003eABV – 12%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Didier Dagueneau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43984258564183,"sku":"DDD-PURSANG-23","price":369.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/1e98ac66-522e-4e71-b18e-0132c60861f8.webp?v=1782450450","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/domaine-didier-dagueneau-vin-de-france-pur-sang-2023","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
