Vinification

Special vinification starting from the settling of the juice. Racking of the must, being filtered instantly and before fermentation, followed by standard thermo-regulated fermentation. No malolactic fermentation. Maturation on fine lees.

Tasting Notes

A fresh, juicy and charming Sancerre with aromas of dried pears, warm herbs and some raw almonds. It’s medium-bodied with moderate acidity. Well rounded and creamy, yet it remains refreshing with a delicious finish.
