      The original ‘thoroughbred’ of La Folie. Pur Sang—French for thoroughbred—stems from a 30‑year‑old, flint‑rich parcel in La Folie. Long considered one of Dagueneau’s superstars, this wine combines bold structure with sophisticated clarity, reflecting the unique terroir that originally surprised locals.

      Fermented and aged in demi‑muids and cigar barrels, then finely balanced in tank. Louis‑Benjamin’s 2022 vintage pulls oak integration and energy into crisp focus, with tight texture and citrus‑herb precision.

      Sauvignon Blanc from dense planting in silica‑clay soils, this powerful yet refined wine pairs beautifully with smoked fish or rich shellfish.

      Domaine Didier Dagueneau Vin de France Pur Sang 2022
      Domaine Didier Dagueneau

      Dagueneau is an absolutely essential name in Loire wines. "A quality extremist" who takes the Pouilly wines to a unique level. It is after all in Pouilly Fumé and Sancerre that set the global benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc. The two signature wines, Silex and Pur Sang rank amongst the great white wines of the world. They are in a dimension beyond being merely outstanding Sauvignon Blanc.

      Didier Dagueneau will forever be remembered as “The Wild Man of Saint-Andelain”. A true enfant terrible, he singlehandedly revolutionised viticulture and wine making in Pouilly-Fumé. Initially vilified by his peers, he was eventually revered for his success. Dagueneau tragically passed away in a light plane crash in September 2008.  His son is now in charge of the Domaine and continues to uphold his father’s remarkable legacy.

      Benjamin Dagueneau grew up in the vineyards and tasting great wines with his legendary father. He completed a degree in oenology and came back to work at the Domaine in 2004 after a year with François Chidaine in Montlouis and another year with Olivier Jullien at Mas Jullien in the Languedoc. He was about to launch his own Domaine when his father tragically passed away. He was ready.

      But how do the wines of Louis Benjamin differ from those of his father. The wines today have the same tension and vineyard expression that they did under Didier yet there is an added generosity and texture which certainly adds something to the equation. Regardless, no matter which wine you choose, each bottle from this avant-garde grower lives in a dimension beyond being merely outstanding Sauvignon Blanc and ranks amongst the great white wines of the world.
