Vinification
Grapes are pressed at low pressure, cold stabilized, and in contact with the lees for 8 days. The juices are then fermented at low temperature for 10 months, with weekly stirrings.
Tasting Notes
Chalky minerality leaps out on the nose of this Sancerre followed by green plum, green apple and lime citrus. On the palate the wine is steely in texture with wet stone and hints of white peach on the long finish. This Sancerre would pair wonderfully with mussels, clams, scallops and crustaceans of any sort.
