Quincy is one of the Loire’s best-kept secrets — a small appellation producing Sauvignon Blanc of real quality, just a few miles from Sancerre but without the price tag. Domaine Bailly brings an extraordinary pedigree to the glass: Jacques Bailly is heir to a winemaking tradition stretching back to the 1700s, and he and wife Marie-Hélène farm their vineyards with the kind of care and knowledge that only generations of experience can bring. The Beaucharme is crisp, refined, and immediately appealing — fresh citrus, white peach, and a delicate herbal note on the nose, with a clean, mineral-driven palate, lively acidity, and a long, satisfying finish. All the pleasure of a great Loire Sauvignon Blanc, at a price that makes it an easy everyday choice.
