Aromas of crisp pears, lemon zest, wildflowers. Stone fruit and citrus, with a finish that echoes the terroir’s smoke and seasalt notes. Complex and very age-worthy.

Pair with rich seafood; white meats; cream sauces

A full south-facing vineyard. ‘Les Romains’ was one of the domaine’s first ‘single vineyard’ bottlings (the first vintage was 1997). Pure flint (silex) soils, rich in fossilized material; such soils contribute a minerality and smokiness to the wine.

The decision to select exclusively fruit grown on pure flint soils, from a peerless vineyard that faces full south, has given birth to one of the more age-worthy, collectible and memorable Sancerre Blanc wines from the appellation.

Hand-harvested. Fermented on indigenous yeasts in large, upright wooden fermentation tanks (from 255-36HL). Racked, then aged for one year in same wooden tank. Unfiltered.
