Sancerre Rosé 2025

Sancerre Rosé is produced in the Sancerre appellation, located in the Loire Valley of France. This region is renowned for its crisp and elegant wines, benefiting from a cool continental climate and limestone-rich soils.

The Sancerre Rosé from Pierre Prieur is made primarily from Pinot Noir grapes, which are the traditional varietal for rosé wines in this appellation.

The wine is crafted using careful vinification techniques typical of the Sancerre region. After hand harvesting, the Pinot Noir grapes undergo a short maceration period to extract the delicate pink color and subtle aromas. The fermentation is conducted at controlled temperatures to preserve freshness and aromatic complexity. The wine is then aged briefly in stainless steel tanks to maintain its crisp character before bottling.

• Appearance: Pale salmon pink color with brilliant clarity.
• Aroma: Fresh red berries, such as strawberry and raspberry, with floral and citrus hints.
• Palate: Light-bodied and crisp with vibrant acidity, flavors of red fruit, subtle minerality, and a clean, refreshing finish.

Sancerre Rosé pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, enhancing both simple and refined meals:

• Grilled seafood such as shrimp or salmon
• Light salads with goat cheese or fresh herbs
• Charcuterie and mild cured meats
• Asian cuisine with subtle spice
• Fresh summer vegetables and light pasta dishes
