About

About the Wine

There is something truly unique about Sancerre. When a winemaker gets it right, capturing that cooling essence of wet stone and under ripe fruits, there really is no wine like it. Rest assured, you're in safe hands here.

Sourced from over 30 different plots, this combines Sancerre's classic elegance with complexity and intense flavours. Kiwi and fresh greenery come through on the nose, with wet rock and cooling mint. The palate is precise and focused, with some white nectarine, savoury bramble and lively citrus. Go classic and have this with a soft goat cheese, or go Aussie and have this with some fried school prawns.

About Domaine Vincent Delaporte

Domaine Vincent Delaporte has been family owned and operated since the 17th Century - they have survived economic crises, endured world wars and weathered the phylloxera epidemic. Since 2010, the domaine has been in the hands the latest Delaporte custodian, Matthieu, who has held true to the traditions of the region. In fact, everything old is new again.

Organics have been adopted in the vineyards and oak is used sparingly, allowing for a showcase of genuine flavours inherent to Sancerre. Since 2015, harvests have only been carried out by hand. This all of this ensures only the best fruit is used and that the resulting wines are balanced, quality driven and true expressions of site.

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
