In the mouth
The palate is vibrant and crystalline, displaying the mineral precision and purity expected of a well-made Sancerre rouge. The finish is clean and persistent.
A wine of genuine merit for the discerning collector. Pair with roasted game, venison, or well-aged hard cheeses. Drink with pleasure now for its expressive character, or cellar for five to eight years to discover the wine's evolution and deepening complexity. A fine example of Loire red winemaking.
