Sancerre Blanc Les Chasseignes
Fruit from a dozen east & south facing microparcels totalling 3.25ha, all growing on gravelly limestone (Caillottes) soils with vines ranging in 25-50 years. Vinified and aged on lees partially in large old barrels and stainless tanks for 7-8 months. Les Chasseignes is the local name designating Caillottes soil.
Tasting Note: Aromas of white peach, yellow plum, pear, grapefruit, lemon with hints of crushed stone and chamomile on the nose. Rich and supple on the palate with a citrus and orchard fruit core, bright acidity, rounded texture, great intensity, good length on a saline finish.
