Sancerre Blanc Half 2022 (La Poussie)
Taste Profile: A beautiful minerality brings a lovely character. The palate is round with a finesse offering the aromatic flavours of gingerbread, honey and peach. The finish is persistent and ends on a light and refreshing mineral note. The first notes are very fine, complex and delicate. The aromas of peaches, quince and white flowers follow. Light aeration reveals the delicate scents of exotic fruit. The minerality brings a beautiful equilibrium and harmony.
Grape: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Serving Tips: Best served between 8 and 10°C. Pairs exceptionally well with a wide range of food options – Try it with white meats and seafood, soft cheeses, and green vegetables.
Winemaking: Pneumatic pressing with a fragmentation of the juice, cold settling for 24 hours followed by fermentation in thermostatically regulated vats. Maturing on fine lees for several months according to tasting followed by a soft clarification before being bottled.
