Guilhem Et Jean-Hugues Goisot, Saint-Bris Exogyra Virgula 2021

100% Sauvignon Blanc

Drinks like Chablis—medium-bodied, Burgundy, organic, and biodynamic. It exhibits brilliant minerality and poise, with a nose of citrus and melon. The taste is long and intense, with a flinty, sweet, and dry finish that is fresh and thoroughly pleasing.

Geographically, Saint-Bris should be categorized as part of Chablis. However, it was exiled from Chablis after phylloxera, ultimately shifting its main variety to Sauvignon Blanc. Here’s the story behind the bottle’s name: “Exogyra” refers to an extinct genus of fossil marine oysters dating back to the Jurassic era, deposited deep into the earth under the vines; “Virgula” means comma, symbolizing the curved shape of the oyster shells.
