Quincy Wines
The historic appellation of Quincy lies on the Cher tributary of the Loire 10 kilometers south-east of Vierzon. The only permitted grape here is Sauvignon Blanc that yields crisp, zesty white wines from the mineral-rich, alluvial soils on the western bank of the Cher. Although Quincy was the second appellation to be invested into the Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée firmament (after Châteauneuf du Pape in 1936), today it is home to just a handful of independent winemakers competing with the Central Vineyards more resonant names at Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé – as such it can offer terrific value for money.
