Crafted entirely from Pinot Noir, this distinguished cuvée showcases the concentration, elegance and remarkable ageing potential of premium red Sancerre.\u003cbr\u003eSourced from the renowned terroirs of Bué, the wine comes from approximately 1.5 hectares of clay-limestone vineyards with limestone subsoil. The vines average around 50 years of age, contributing depth, concentration and complexity to the resulting wine.\u003cbr\u003eThe domaine follows a meticulous vineyard management philosophy, avoiding herbicides and emphasizing natural soil cultivation, grass cover and environmentally conscious practices. Grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted to preserve their quality and aromatic expression.\u003cbr\u003eIn the winery, the grapes are completely destemmed before undergoing cold pre-fermentation maceration in truncated-conical wooden vats. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, accompanied by gentle pigeage and pumping over to develop structure while maintaining the purity of the fruit.\u003cbr\u003eThe wine is matured with approximately two-thirds in new and one-year-old oak barrels and one-third in wooden vats. This carefully managed ageing process contributes texture, depth and complexity while preserving the distinctive character of Pinot Noir.\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 vintage is particularly impressive for its concentration, graceful balance and limestone-driven mineral expression. It offers an elegant combination of vibrant cherry, raspberry, sweet spice and velvety tannins, making it a remarkable example of age-worthy Loire Valley Pinot Noir.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep ruby red with bright garnet and subtle violet reflections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpressive and concentrated with aromas of ripe cherry, fresh raspberry and dark berries, complemented by delicate floral notes, sweet spices and subtle earthy undertones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFull and voluptuous yet beautifully balanced, revealing vibrant cherry, juicy raspberry and layered red fruit flavours.
