Tasting Notes:
This is a classically styled Sancerre with grass and flint notes bringing complexity to the bright floral and citrus aromas. Dry, medium bodied and fresh, with lively fresh fruit and crispy acidity.
Winemaking: Fermentation is spontaneous through native, ambient yeast, but non-aromatic cultured yeast is added as needed. After fermentation the wine rests on its lees for several months before being filtered and bottled.
Food Pairing: Seafood, shellfish, poultry, pork and fresh goat cheese.
