Origin

The Sancerre Red is produced in the Sancerre appellation, located in the Loire Valley, France. This region is renowned for its distinctive terroir characterized by limestone and flint soils, which contribute to the wine's unique profile.

Variety

This red wine is made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, the traditional variety used for red wines in the Sancerre appellation.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo careful sorting to ensure quality. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh fruit character. The wine is then aged for several months, often in neutral oak barrels or stainless steel, to maintain its delicate structure and aromatic purity.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Bright ruby red color with medium intensity.
  • Aroma: Fresh red berry aromas such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle floral and earthy notes.
  • Palate: Light to medium-bodied with vibrant acidity, fine tannins, and a crisp, refreshing finish.

Food pairings

This Sancerre Red pairs excellently with:

  • Grilled poultry and duck
  • Lightly spiced pork dishes
  • Soft cheeses such as goat cheese or Brie
  • Earthy mushroom-based dishes
  • Charcuterie and light appetizers
