Sancerre Les Vignes du Rocher 2019

• 75cl bottle

This expressive wine has a powerful nose of exotic passion fruit, with hints of gunflint. The palate is aromatic with a lovely refreshing length.

Vineyards

The vines are grown on flint based soils on slopes facing South/South East. The vines then enjoy optimal exposure to the sun. All vineyard processes are carried out in an environmental manner, adapted for each terroir.

Vintage

The 2019 was overall a good vintage in Central Loire, despite the frost episodes in early spring. The summer was very hot, with the heat stress impacting the overall yields but the remaining fruit quality was outstanding, yielding balanced and harmonious wines.

Winemaking

The grapes are first sorted and de-stemmed, before the juice undergoes cold static settling. Fermentation takes place in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks at low temperatures.

Enjoy with:

• Grilled and Roasted White Meats
• Fish/Shellfish
• Pizza/Pasta
• Salads and Picnics
• Mild Creamy Cheeses
• Mature Strong Cheeses

Perfect with fish, seafood or with mature goat's cheese such as Crottin de Chavignol.
